Default slow response to change in cell

Excel is set to manual recalculate. When I change text in a text cell,
response is immediate. When I change a precedent data cell, computer response
takes almost a minute (computer hd lite shows no activity), formula cells are
not changed. When I manually recalculate, the response is immediate. The
delay is terrible. Any ideas what I can do to correct this?

Did you try to set calculation to automatic and see whether you get any
problem?

Yes, my first suspicion was that there were excessive calculations. Now
after changing a data field the long delay occurs. When the delay ends,
dependent cells have not recalculated. Then when maually recalculating, the
response time was very short
