SLOW cut, copy, and close
I recently went from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate on my home
computer. Now cut, copy, format painter, and save are VERY slow in Word, Excel, and Outlook, but not PowerPoint, Note Pad or non-MS products. They take up to a minute, even when the amount of data is tiny. My computer has 4 GB of RAM. I have used two different programs to check that the computer does not have a virus. I have used the Microsoft Office Diagnostics tool, and it found no problems. Help! -- foxywoodchuck

I had the exact same problem. I stopped all other programs from starting at
startup (typed MSCONFIG in the start button and disabled everything). Now everything works. I suspect for me at least, the problem was some program that was running in the background and somehow causing the problem. Good luck.

Thanks for your suggestion. I updated the video driver, and the problem seems
to have gone away. -- foxywoodchuck "Tuan Vu" wrote: I had the exact same problem. I stopped all other programs from starting at startup (typed MSCONFIG in the start button and disabled everything).
