2007 performance

[jmac60]

Hello...
I have a 1.6 ghz/1GB ram lap top that runs 07 Pro slowly, even with files on
a local drive. The time scale paints twice with every change. 3D is off...
I'd like it to run at least as well as 03 b4 I ask my teams to upgrade. Any
tuning suggestions?
Thanks

I find that temporarily turning off Automatic Calculation eliminates most of
the eggtimers introduced with 2007.

Have you updated to SP1? If not, try it.

Thjanks to you both...both strategies helped a little bit. still not great,
but it doesn't paint twice. I was surprised that manual calculation still
changed dates when durations were changed. I thought that was part of the
manual calculation. Needless to say there is nothing in the help system about
what that switch does.
