Outlook runs slowly on my T500

Allright.. That's not really the case..

Admin thread topic edit: Your trolling behaviour through posting a misleading thread topic has been duly noted!

But Outlook works better on T43 than on T500, forcing me to work on both laptops.

This is not really a T500 issue IMO, but this doesn't seem to be a server issue either. Anyone has any pointers they could share?

To clarify, it just 'hangs' much more, whenever I drag anything or open emails.

I wish I went for T400, T500 is too bulky

Thanks

What OS do you have? What Outlook version do you mean (built-in or Office)? Of it´s M$ Office, which version of it?

The admin is evil :)

I think after doing some further digging (trying to compare add-ins, etc), I've noticed that that the 'faster' Outlook on T43 was a higher version (SP1), and I thought I applied all the patches..

Apparently I had to get some sort of newer windowsupdate activex plugin to get it to recognize that I have office as well (just googled for office update).

It appears better now.

OS ix XP, Outlook 2007 (part of office 2007)
