Hello and thanks for your replies.
I just recently upgraded from XP to Windows Vista SP 1 and I've ran into a couple of problems. As I am using Internet Explorer and Office, and for no apparent reason, all of sudden I get an error message saying that it has encountered a problem and that it needs to close and restart. The last time I wa using "IE" it happened when I clicked on a preview of a movie, a couple of seconds later an error message popped up saying that "IE was not responding and that it needed to restart." I've made sure that Windows is up-to-date and that my security features are up-to-date also. I've also received the same problem after installing "Office" and opened Word for the 1st time. What can I do to eliminate these errors? Thank you, FJ |

Anything else running in background? Check with Task Manager (Ctl-Alt-Del)
open Task Mgr. Look for scans running in background. Also run error check ( My comp-C drive (?) -Properties-Tools- Error check: Check box for fix errors; restart when ready. Bob H.

Try an Office repair
Not all versions of Office are fully suported in Vista & you neglected to mention your version "Concern1" wrote in message news ![]() Hello and thanks for your replies.

Hello Robert. Thanks for replying to my message. I actually tried what you
suggested, but it did not solve the problem. Nothing suspcious appeared to be running in the background, and I did run the "Error check." I thank you, however, for your reply. FG.
