- So the page file is set to "leave it to Windows", without minimum and maximum size?
- Do the problems occur with specific spreadsheets or with all?
- Do the problems occur if you run Excel in its own safe mode (see http://excelribbon.tips.net/T011632_Starting_in_Safe_Mode.html)
- Do the problems occur if you run Excel in Windows' Safe Mode?
