I seem to be getting a lot of “Not Responding” errors where my computer stalls or hangs for a 30 seconds to a minute then resumes working. These errors seem to happen on Microsoft products (Word, Outlook, Excel). But that may just be that those are the programs I use all the time.
Any advice would be appreciated.
“Windows repair”?
(In Office Professional Plus 2010, it’s
"Start → Control Panel → Programs and Features → Microsoft Office 2010 Professional → select “Change” → select “Repair” → click “Continue” → go get a cup of your beverage-of-choice; the whole thing takes about five minutes.)
I usually have five or six memory-hog Windows programs open and running constantly. Every few days, they get really crash-y and uncooperative.
If rebooting doesn’t work, Windows repair usually does.
Good luck.
The logical place to look for this would be 08 01 50 Operation and Maintenance of Windows.
