Save As (Not Responding)

[chuckshep11]

I have Office 07 and Vista and recently I discovered I can't save
anything in Word. When I click Save As and if I just click Save it will
save fine, but if I want to save to another file or a pin drive it
freezes up and gives me a Not Responding box and eventually closes Word.
I can't find a solution and I don't know what to do. Any help would be
great and I can give you more information if you need it.

Let's See--
You can save and save as works as long as you are not saving to a Pin
Drive -- Correct?
The "another file" problem is a bit ambiguous-- can you explain further?
Is the "another file a duplicate of an original, or perhaps a new file
entirely.

Have you specified a save path that is perhaps incorrect?
How about a nonexistent default save path, or a save path that requires full
admin privilege?

Well I'm not too computer literate so I don't know what your talking
about with a nonexistent default save path and it is my laptop so I am
the admin and have full privilege. And Save As works only when I save to
my documents. If I click anywhere else in the Save As box such as
Computer or Desktop or Recent Places or anywhere but the little button
that says Save, it says Not Responding and stops working.
