Question On Office 2007 and systems slowing down in response time

Posted: 15 Feb 2007 12:41 PM PST

Hi Leon,



Thanks for the reply and your insight in this matter.



The system that I am running is a P4 3.0 with a gig of ram which should be
more than enough power for this product.



In my instance it seems that I have to double click more than once on
everything like my CPU is running at 100% or high. I have had my task
manager open to see my CPU usage and nothing hits that high.



I have updated my Mouse, keyboard and video drivers to the latest just to
rule them out.



The same thing is still happening and I have rebooted at least three times
this week with the same issues.



I have now installed this on a few other systems as we are doing a slow roll
out and I am getting the same response from others as well just a general
slowdown in their systems. If a P4 3.0 with a gig of ram is not enough for
this software then it seems that a lot of people are going to have a lot of
problems if it's a resource issue.



I do not think in this case that is the problem something is eating up the
resources of the computers and not just mine but others.



Can you recommend any way of indentify the resources that are in use. Again
I never had this type of issue until we started installing Office 2007.



Thanks

Adam Raff

Great! Thanks--I also found the answer to my other question re: maximizing
the ribbon... It's been a good day<g>! (This version sure takes a lot of
getting used to and in the meanwhile productivity takes a vacation.)

Office 2007 and Acrobat 8.x

> Thanks to you both. I got the same info from Adobe on this, and yes,
G-N-O, 
Adobe has had all the information they need for quite some time. In
fact, it has been available to all add-in developers since the public
Beta 2 mid last year came out. Other suppliers of Office add-ins have
managed to be 2007 compliant by now, but Adobe hasn't.
 
There is no need to collaborate for Microsoft. The DOCX file format is
now controlled by a standards body and the entire documentation is
available to everyone. It simply is a complex file format that will take
vendors quite some time to implement. I wouldn't expect any other vendor
to support the DOCX format for the next half year or so.
Your problem can be overcome relatively easy though. If you go in Office
button menu, Word Options, Save, you can switch the default save format
to the 97-2003 file format (DOC), which should be no problem for
InDesign to understand.
 
There is no Microsoft implementation of XML. The new file formats are
built using XML. The spec though wasn't adopted by a standard's body
until December (getting something as complex as this standardized is a
lot of work and took around a year), which means that most other vendors
probably didn't start implementing it until then.
 
Office 2007 is the first Office release in a long time that brings
actual change and innovation. The downside of that of course is that the
transition is not as seamless as it could be, especially for early
adopters that are going to 2007 now. Once all the other vendors have
caught up with Office 2007 (prob. in a year or so) it will be much more
seamless.

Cannot Change Default Dictionary

Posted: 14 Feb 2007 11:22 AM PST

Thanks for trying, but I don't see how this applies as it is dealing with
Beat and RTM versions . . . unless these problems were never corrected. My
version is not RTM or Beta, but a full fledged copy. Further, I dis not have
office 2003. I was using Office 2000. This article deals with Office 2003.

Upgrade of Office 2007

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 10:59 PM PST

Hi Charles,

Yes, the Office 2007 Home and Student edition allows 3 machine installs. It does not include MS Outlook (but rather OneNote), a
change from the Office 2003 Student & Teacher's edition.

Does Home and Student edition still provide 3 licenses? >>

Office 2003 & 2007 installed - Setting the Default

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 10:03 PM PST

Yes, I did that and it did not work. I'll try the first suggestion and
reinstall Office 2003 to see if that works. Thanks.

MSOCache in Office 2007

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 02:05 PM PST

Hi Peter,

The way Office 2007 works is that the actual setup (and repair) are done from the MSOCache folder. If you delete the \MSOCache
folder nothing will happen immediately, but when you go to update, repair, reinstall, etc, when you put in the product CD it will
first recreate the \MSOCache folder, if it can, or you'll need to do a manual fix and reinstall.

The main issues being resolved by this is, no longer need to be able to find the CD (a surprising # of people seem to misplace it
<g>) and for deployments, the MSOCache folders can be setup ahead of time and then setup run basically locally.

===========
<<"Peter" <microsoft.com> wrote in message news:com...
Hello all,

In the Knowledge Base article relating to the MSOCache folder and the Office
2007 installation it says:

"The Local Install Source (MSOCache folder, my comment) feature is installed
so that you do not have to insert the CD during the following Setup
operations:
.. The Detect and repair operation
.. The Demand install operation
.. The Maintenance mode setup operation
.. The installation of service packs and updates
Also, you cannot remove the Local Install Source feature after the
installation has been completed. The Windows Cleanup Wizard does not include
an option to remove this feature."

I can see why MS wants the folder to be there (it will certainly minimize
support calls) but to me who install the functions I need one time and one
time only and neither have the tendency to break the program so that it needs
repairing, I prefer to delete this folder and then insert the CD if I at some
stage update the software.

Can I not do this? (Typically the KB article does not address this but only
specifies the way MS would like users to behave) >>

Is Word 2007 Supposed to Run Configuration Each Time I Open It?

Posted: 13 Feb 2007 08:29 AM PST

Not that I am aware of. I never set up Vista to run as administrator, just
used it the way it came with the computer. When I installed Office, I just
did the default install. How do I tell if I am running as an admin? And
should I be running as Admin or not? Thanks in advance...

Multiple errors on reinstall of Office 2003 Standard

Posted: 11 Feb 2007 01:37 PM PST

I did an uninstall from Add/Remove programs--started the windows uninstall
cleaner and it did not show Office as being installed so I reinstalled with
custom install. Everything was fine for awhile. I finished installing all
the updates from the Web for Office that appeared after my reinstall. I also
installed Framework 2 and I think that caused a problem because now the entry
in printers for Office image scanner has disappeared again.

Do I try another reinstall or do I try a repair? If I do a repair will it
pick all the udpates for Office that it had be load in automatic updates?
Also, I installed Rollup 2 and Framework 2 from downloaded files on my
desktop so I could turn off autoprotect on Norton Internet Security 2006. I
read somewhere that Framework should be installed before Office is installed.
I did have Framework 1.1 with appropriate updates installed before loading
Office for the first time.

why does the end user agreement keep opening upon office docs open

Posted: 09 Feb 2007 08:10 PM PST

If this is happening under Vista you need to:
1) turn off "User Account Control" UAC
2) accept EULA one more time
3) turn "User Account Control" back on (this is optional - but you'll get
security warnings if you don't.

UAC is located in Control Panel/User Accounts and Family Safety/User Accounts
