Vista - problems with Outlook 2007 in Vista

Hi. I am having trouble with Outlook '07 in Vista. As long as Outlook is
running, my hard drive pages constantly, not to mention the resources are
almost at full capacity. The program is slow to respond, often giving me the
(NOT RESPONDING) message before it finally kicks in and works. Very annoying.
Was working fine when I first installed, and now this for the last 2 days.
Bogs down my entire system. I am using a Dell Precision M70 with a Pentium M
2.13 Ghz processor, 2 gigs of RAM, and a 80 gig hard drive. Video is nVidia
Quadro FX Go1400. Thanks.

Have you checked your Event logs to see if you are getting any errors that
might relate to this? In both the Application log and the System log?

Turns out that a message stuck in the outbox was causing all of this...
weird. just a simple email with no attachments... had to delete it 3 times
before it finally went away. problem resolved. Thanks.

It would be a good idea to post this message to the Outlook newsgroup. The
experts there will know more about possible issues with that program. Click
