if your pc is slowing down. so much so that there is a lag with
typing. then you either do have a virus or you have a registry
problem.
what virus software are you using? try panda.com's free online scan of
your pc. i have been using trend microsystems, reporting nothing
wrong. but i knew there was, tried panda and "pang" ....found 8!
try this first. if it reports none.
download adaware. its a freeware scan that will remove any adware/
spyware that you may have picked up that the virus scans dont find.
after that, download ReSupremePro and do a deep scan of your registry.
remove everything that is obsolete.
i betcha after doing these 3 simple things your machine is back on
top.
remember. its better to fix the problems than try to use something to
disguise them.
on another note tom, and not to be niggly. this is a forum for
microsoft powerpoint related issues. you've actually got a hardware /
system problem.
just a future note.
ok, good luck with cleaning up that machine.
Regards,
Scott Harvey

I'd first try changing hardware acceleration.

If that doesn't do it, then -- and I don't know that this will fix your problem -- I'd try this:

I've seen several references to the problem of very slow
typing (ie. program lags by a few seconds). I've
searched my computer for a virus and find none. Does
anyone have any other suggestions. I use XP and Office
2003. The problem is also happening with Word. Thanks
Tom
