In our NT 4 BDC, everytime the Outlook Express is started the screen goes blank for about 1/4th of a second and then OE starts. While closing OE the same thing is repeated. It seems like a hardware problem but associated only with one apps is baffling me.

Other apps are working fine.
Any help is appreciated.

hi,
Could happen if you are already running a video mem/CPU hog or heavy app like SQL Svr, Oracle, SMS or MS Ofice File Finder, Indexer etc. Then when you open Outlook Express it might cause a bit of time lag while opening.

Check your Server for any Memory Virus, it might be taking conventional mem as well.

Is your Pagefile of appropriate size, else increase it ?
