frontpage stops responding

[Guest]

I am using FP2003 with win xp pro
I have been creating a new web page all day and all of a sudden it stops
responding. When I check the resources being used it's at 100%. I can open
frontpage fine and edit other sites I've created without problems. But when
I try to open a page in the new site it just stops or goes very, very slow.
What can be causing this? I have tried reinstalling and repairing but it has
not helped.
Thanks,
Steve

Do some cleanup and repair
Start by clearing out your IE temp Folder
The try the usual repairs in the sequence below:
1) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all FP Temp Files
Usually in C:\WINDOWS\Temp and %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temp
- in FP 2003 you need to look in the super hidden folder
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\FrontPageTempDir
2) In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
Usually in %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache
3) Find and delete cmdui.prf (your menu customizations will be lost)
4) Run a Repair on IE
(see http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=318378 )
5) Install all Service Packs for your OS, IE, MS Office and your Video card
(Windows Update and Office Update sites, plus your video card supplier site)
6) Open FP and Disable or Uninstall any FP Addins,
7) Open your FP Web/Site and run a Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks

Did all that but still no luck. FP works fine on my other sites. It's just
one that is giving me the problem. I can open the site from my drive and
view reports but as soon as I open a page it stops.
