The following details would help to determine the likely cause of the performance problem:

- model of the IMB and HP PC and/or CPU type
- size of RAM

Are you running anti-virus software?

Are the PCs connected to a LAN? What type of a server do you have or do you have a file server at all?

Where are the Word and Excel templates located, in the local hard drive or in a folder in the file server?

Sounds like you are flat out of RAM by the time you get the office document open. Need more info. Have you looked at Task Manager under performance to determin what memory you have left or if the CPU is held at 100% for any specific app?
