I repeatedly get excel not responding errors when working on large excel
files on my Acer Travelmate 4060 laptop. Performing the same tasks on other
lower spec machines does not seem to give rise to the problem?
 
Try cleaning out your Temp directory

Close Excel and do Start / Run / %temp%

Delete all the stuff in here (Assuming you haven't just installed
anything - If so then reboot)

Try again.

It's easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission :-)

Also, what version Excel are we talking here?

Hi Ken - its Office 2003 version - it tends to hang primarily when I go to
delete large sections of data (ie delete rows)
