Outlook 2007 SP 2 freezing on Win7 RC

P

Peter Jansen

Hi - I would appreciate any advice on how to further diagnose or solve the
problem below (preferably without uninstalling unless people think it's one
of those ones where it is best to bite the bullet):

Outlook 2007 is intermittently not responding to user input on my Windows 7
RC laptop (Lenovo W500). It's a weird problem and I can't determine exactly
what triggers it. When it happens Outlook appears to be running normally
but when I attempt to click on any of the windows they do not respond to
mouse clicks or key presses. The Windows do not grey out and show as not
responding and appear to be working but just don't react to anything I do
whether I use the Win 7 taskbar or Alt-tab or Switch-To or Bring to front in
the task manager.

I usually have multiple Outlook windows open such as the main window showing
e-mail, one for Calendar and one for tasks. When the problem occurs I
cannot close any of the windows either by trying to click on the X at the
top right or right clicking on them. Right clicking and choosing close
works on some of the Outlook windows such as Calendar but it wont close the
main window. I have to kill the process via the task manager to get it
working again.

I have Outlook logging turned on and below are some log extracts. Can
anyone suggest which is the best Outlook log to look at that might shed some
light on the problem? Has anyone seen this before? It feels like it could
be a bit of a combined Win 7 and Outlook issue.

I have Outlook 2007 12.0.6504.5000 SP 2 MSO 12.0.6425.1000 with the
OCS/Livemeeting plug in, office labs e-mail Prioritizer, the Outlook
Connector, and a few other plug ins. We are using Exchange server, OCS and
Communicator 2007 R2. I have Windows 7 Enterprise RC and all the latest
office and Windows patches.

Just to close the loop on this: This seems to have been caused by
communicator. I reinstalled communicator and it fixed the problem with
Outlook (although now communicator is freezing).
