Well, I just got a fancy new computer with VISTA and Office2007 and while everything was going smoothly for one day, now that is not the case. As far as I know, nothing changed, but when I open my translation and press CTRL+DOWN, the computer begins to think and then after a few minutes, Office freezes and asks to shut down. Anyone out there have any solutions for me? Thanks!

Hyperlink? Oct 5, 2007

This is just a shot in the dark, but could that segment be a hyperlink to something that cannot be reached?

Wordfast crashed for me too. I re-dubbed it Wordslow! Oct 17, 2007

Matt, Wordfast crashed for me too - constantly. Worse than Le Concorde! I re-dubbed this loser software "Wordslow" before removing all traces of it from my PC (Pentium 4 with Windows XP Home). It will take a lot to persuade me to reinstall it. I was doing translations for an agency, and I wasted hours vainly trying to find out what was causing the problem - almost missed my deadlines. The Wordslow manual is atrociously difficult to understand for a newbie like yours truly, and I'm no dope. Merde... See more

The Wordslow manual is atrociously difficult to understand for a newbie like yours truly, and I'm no dope. Merde alors!

If you do find out what was causing the probs and have solved them, please e-mail me immédiatement: [email protected]

Mille fois merci!
