Why?

My PC has a stonking big powerful dual-core processor (the laptop cost
£1000)
I have many gigs of free-space
My disk is thoroughly defragged

My colleague has a very run of the mill business laptop

For other things my PC is faster or the same as his

What can I do, because this is becoming frustrating.

Thanks

it is advisable to remove temporary files from cache.

go to start - run - %temp%- remove all temporary files
frequently restart your machine and also use all in cleaner.

make sure other bulk excel spreadsheets are closed.

all the best
