2007 slow/jerky on Pentium M Labtop
(OP)
I just installed SW Office 2007 on my 1.83Ghz Pentium M laptop with 1GB RAM. The entire program runs slow, ie opening any file types takes forever. Even with very simple parts. When you try to rotate a part the Model movement is very jerky. For example if you are trying to rotate a model from front to back it will jerk about half way, stop for 10-15 seconds and then jerk to the back view. I previously had Office 2006 installed and it worked fine. Any ideas?

Did you convert all the SW06 files to SW07 [u]before[/b] opening in SW07?
Have you upgraded the video card driver for SW07?
Do you have an approved video card for SW07?
Do you have the SW search index function enabled? If you do, disable it. It is a resource hog and is next to useless anyway.

Check to make sure that the VC drivers are using the correct version that is supported by SW. You can find the drivers under Dell is tha Mfg. THis sounds like a Grpahics card/driver issue.

I think it's the machine, unfortunately. The mobile (endurance) laptops don't feature very high-performance video cards.

I'm pretty sure that you were lucky with '06 running on your machine. Your processor just wasn't designed with something as intense as SW in mind, nor was the video card that probably came with your machine.
