MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / March 2007how to reduce high cpu usage
When I run Outlook 2003 on my dell M1210 notebook, the CPU usage increase and slower down other services. The cpu given spike usage in every 1-2 seconds. How to resolve this and what is the cause of it? How often are you polling for new mail and do you have your antivirus set to scan incoming/outgoing mail? Do you have any add ins or COMs installed? Any synching software or fax software?

I have windows vista on here and installed office 2003 pro. There is no Anti virus or add-ins on this box. No synch software either. When outlook is opened the cpu spikes ever 6 seconds making the use of outlook impossible. I thought maybe vista and office 2003 didn't play well together and used it as excuse or reason to buy office 2007 ultimate. But I still have the same problem when outlook 2007 is opened. I have tried running outlook in Win XP SP2 compatability mode but still no help.

Automatic send/receive set at every 5 minutes. I'm using Symantec antivirus but no setting for scan incoming/outgoing mail. No sync software and this only happen when Outlook running. I do have Viso and AutoCad but it does not take CPU usage as high and continues like outlook. > How often are you polling for new mail and do you have your antivirus set to > scan incoming/outgoing mail?

If so, delete your .ost file (it's hidden so you'll have to search hidden files and folders). The file will recreate when you open Outlook.

If you are, turn it off and see if this improves performance.
