t60p and office 2007

#1 Post by caschmid » Sun Jan 21, 2007 2:23 pm

I had to test my t60p with the new office 2007. For this reason I installed the Lenovo preload with XP and office pro plus.
Unfortunatly I experienced an increase of display flickering and a
very unstable outlook. The system crashed regularly.
Does anyone know something about it or got similar incompatibiliy
results?

Display flickering? Only with Office? Is it the RTM version?

Not many people running Office 2007 yet ...

I'm running Office pro 2007 on Vista with a T60p, my display is rock solid. Both are RTM versions from MSDN, for what it might be worth. My impression is the newest BIOS 2.09 (79ETC9WW) seems to have help my T60p feel more stable.

I used an RTM version.

I also tested an x60 with rtm office 07 and rtm vista... rocksolid to.

What kind of "flickering" are you seeing? Multiple screen redraws? The entire screen or just the Office app window? All office apps or just some?

Windows XP Pro with Office 2007 works on my X31 and I have no flickering.

multiple screen redraws until the screen turns black (remaining black).
Step by step scrolling.
Main App => outlook 2007
