Entourage Hangs

[mark]

I'm using Entourage version 11.2.1 with Mac OS X version 10.4.3. I'm
experiencing hangs in Entourage.

I had a previous PowerBook G4 that worked fine with this combo. I just
got a new PowerBook G4 this week and am experiencing hangs from
Entourage. I've had about four hangs today alone which require a
restart. Other applications are unaffected.

The primary difference in the two platforms are that I have 2GB of RAM
in the new system vs 512MB in the old system and I have a 100GB 7200
RPM drive in the new system. Is there any possibility that Entourage
is having problems with the larger RAM available or that the drive
speed is causing a problem?

No. It works the other way: more RAM and bigger disk are better, not worse.
