Hi Guys

I'm after some urgent help. I have 2 users on my network who's Excel keeps crashing. They both have about 5 other apps opena dn open Excel, then if exiting or saving, or even opening sometimes, Excel will freeze the pc so the only way to get rid of it is to reboot...thereby losing all their other work! This only started a week ago...pls help. This is driving me nuts!
 
hello there...
Sounds like there is a software conflict. Are you sure that these computers meet the minimum requirements?
A lot of Microsoft software just barely runs at the minimum so it is usually best to be above these limits. If you are not sure whether your computers meet these requirements go to:
If your computer does meet these quite substantially you might have some other software that is conflicting. Did you remove all previous versions of Excel and/or Office?

Also, the fact that they have multiple other applications running might indicate that they are in need of more RAM.
