100% cpu utilization during save as

[Guest itsupport@jdsweid.com]

I'm wondering if anyone here can help me with this. When I'm typing a

filename in the Save As dialog box in Excel 2003, excel.exe shoots up

to 100% CPU utilization and it takes a second or two for the letters

I've typed to show up. This only happens when I'm trying to save to a

network location. The same issue comes up in Word 2003 and Powerpoint

2003, but not in any other windows applications.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

If this is only to a network location, it suggests a problem on the network

side - or permissions.

 

But are you using mapped drives for this? If so, try deleting the mapped

drives and then test SaveAs and navigate to the network drive manually: does

it save without the problems?

Hi Terry, thanks for your response

 

Unfortunately the problem still happens no matter if its a mapped

drive or if I navigate to the server manually. This was even

happening using a domain admin account, so I don't think it's a user

rights issue. I managed to fix it (or at least stop this from

happening) by re-creating the user profiles for the users affected by

this (including myself).

So it is possibly a profile corruption problem. In my experience, these can

be extremely difficult to diagnose - often unsuccessfully: creating new

profiles probably the best solution.

Might sfc /scannow fix the problem?
