OL 2003 Hangs

[Bob Roosth]

I recently upgraded computers and installed Office 2003. System is XP Pro, 1
GB RAM, 160 GB disk.

I had been using OL2000 very happily. I finally got 2003 configured to my
liking, but find it can be very annoying. Every few hours it hangs. There is
one KB article about this (something about OL2003 taking on too much paging
memory when RAM is large), but it offers no fixes. Suggestions?

Not without more info like what actions do you di before it hang, mail
service being used (Exchange, POP3, IMAP, HTTP, other...), what is logged to
the Event Viewer regarding this and the steps you took already to try to
resolve the problem.

Three POP3 email accounts. I see nothing relevant to Outlook in the Event
Viewer under Applications. Just start messages.

Searched MS and found nothing helpful other than the one article already
mentioned. Updated video driver (ATI9600). Checked for Office updates as
well as Windows updates.None needed.

Not sure what else to try.
