Outlook very slow to start on one machine, not on other

G

Gary Hillerson

Outlook on my desktop computer has gotten ridiculously slow to start
up; yet, I got a new laptop and imported the PST file into Outlook on
that machine a couple months ago, and it remains very fast.

We're talking several minutes to start up on the desktop, and a few
seconds on the laptop, with the same accounts, same settings, same
email folders, etc. Same version of Windows (XP-Pro), Office 2003 on
both machines. The desktop PC has plenty of CPU power, storage, and
memory.

I reformatted the drive on my desktop in September and reloaded all
software, but Outlook is really slow to get going.

Any suggestions on how to give Outlook a speed boost on my desktop pc?

thanks in advance,
