Office 97 problems. MS Word hangs.

[fmichael3]

Runing MS Word (Office 97) and the application hangs after typing a few
sentences. Excel has problems as well. After awhile when you click on a
cell multiple cells become highlighted, so you can't click in a single cell.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/ProbsOpeningWord.htm, but don't
discount the fact that this might be simply a display problem, solvable by
updating the display driver.
