Microsoft Excel 2003 - very slow access to hard drive
 

All of a sudden accessing file in my hard drive from any of the Microsoft
Office 2003 Service Pack 3 is almost impossible as it takes a long time. It
seems that something is frozen. I have tried using other software to access
the hard drive and it seems to work fine. I used to have the same problem
with an older laptop and I ended up changing it. Now with my new laptop the
same issue continues. What can I do ?....Thanks

Try emptying your Recycle bin and deleting everything in the Windows Temp folder...
Start | Run | %temp%

thanks Jim for your prompt response. I have tried that and still does not
seem to fix the problem.
