Office apps have REALLY slow typing

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: intel

My issue is intermittent. I have a 4GB MacBook Pro with up to date 10.5.4 and Office 2008 12.1.1. It's clearly not related to memory...

The problem I have is PowerPoint, and to a slightly lesser extent Word and Excel, have terrible performance for typing. The characters take seconds to render, it's utterly unusable.

I've deleted the preferences, tried re-installing Office. Nothing helps. Help, please!

Anyone, please??? MSFT gurus, someone must have an answer or idea.

I did a full uninstall, deleted all pref files, reinstalled, updated, worked for a day and blah....
