I'm wondering if anyone here can help me get to the bottom of a
particulary frustrating problem.
Regulary when I'm using either the Open Office Writer or Calc
applications, I'm often experiencing a situation when Open Office will
all of a sudden seize up completely when I'm in the middle of typing
something. This is happening with enough regularity to cause
unspeakable frustration in my work.
When this happens, All Open Office applications that are currently
running will stop responding altogether, then a few seconds later, the
Windows Task Bar will also stop responding and then any other open
applications will also stop responding to mouse clicks creating the
illusion that windows has completely frozen. From here, I can still go
ALT + CTRL + DEL to bring up the task manager and when I proceed to kill
all Open Office applications which are currently running, Windows will
suddenly spring back into life along with any other applications that
may have been opened at the time.
I've tried updating video card drivers for my nVidia FX5200 Video card,
applying all the critical patches from Windows Update, updated the JVM
to the latest version and have even totally uninstalled Open office and
reinstalled it fresh, but none of this has solved the problem. I'm
really at a loss as to what to do next other than biting the bullet and
going back to using MS Office.
Current System specs.
