the application will hang for at least 2 or 3 minutes;
honestly, I've never let it go longer to see when it will
actually load completely. Some internet searches have turned
up similar problems, but no real solutions.

This happens with Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop,
SolidWorks, and a few other applications. It doesn't happen
with ProEngineer, FrameMaker, Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook,
etc.

The other weird thing is that this started happening awhile
back with my old work computer. This computer was completely
replaced, and it is still occurring. My desktop and user
profiles were all reinstalled on the new computer.

I run UltraMon for a dual-monitor configuration. I've turned
this utility off, and I still get the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

You need more RAM and cache memory or both. Check hard drive
and make sure it's not full. Cleanup your temp files, run
defrag, increase ramdisk size.

There's about 95 GB remaining of free space on the hard drive. I
clean up the temp files all the time with CCleaner. I have 4 GB
of physical memory installed. Given the amount of applications
I run simultaneously, this should be more than adequate. Or, it
has been up until this started. I changed the virtual memory
setting to "system managed." It was 2045, or something like
that.

When I start Excel, it takes about 1 1/2 minutes for it to be
displayed. In my case it's the virus program checking it first.
Same with IE, word, etc.

Are you using Microsoft Forefront Endpoint Protection by any
chance?

When you start something go to the task master first and process
and see what's using all your resources.....That'll be the culprit.

--

1. Open Task Manager. All programs running, all process running.
Nothing unusual taking up resources. Leave Task Manager open.
2. Open Adobe Illustrator. It hangs like normal.
3. Illustrator process shows running; Task Manager shows Illustrator
not responding.
4. Close Task Manager. Illustrator still hanging in background.
5. Hit Ctrl-Alt-Del bringing up Windows Security dialog box.
6. Hit the Cancel button (I don't even open Task Manager).
7. Illustrator running fine when window redisplayed.

Hmm, What kinda PC?

HP XW4600 Workstation

Have you tried disabling Hyperthreading?

[/quote]
Looked for it in the BIOS setup. Didn't see this option anywhere. All
I see is something called "Multi-processor support" enable/disable.
Figured I didn't want to do that. Supposedly, there should have been
the option under Advanced Power Options; but, it wasn't there.

It's not hung if it finally appears, it's just taking its sweet time. Virus
program and or Google desktop or google anthing will cause it too.

Maybe one of those suspects is trying to ping an update site but is
being snagged by a firewall.

What AV are you running? Some of them will stop you in your tracks, and need
to be set up to exclude trusted programs and directories.

don't Ctrl-Alt-Del, the application will hang for at least 2 or 3
minutes; honestly, I've never let it go longer to see when it will
actually load completely. Some internet searches have turned up
similar problems, but no real solutions.

This happens with Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, SolidWorks, and
a few other applications. It doesn't happen with ProEngineer,
FrameMaker, Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, etc.

The other weird thing is that this started happening awhile back with
my old work computer. This computer was completely replaced, and it is
still occurring. My desktop and user profiles were all reinstalled on
the new computer.

I run UltraMon for a dual-monitor configuration. I've turned this
utility off, and I still get the problem.

Any help would be appreciated.

How about posting only to appropiate groups?

I've found that there are plenty of computer experts that are also
experts in other subjects. I am casting a wide net,

Thanks for reminding me about this.

Turns out, it may be my user profile that is corrupted, so I'm going
to rebuild that. I found this out when an IT support person was
remotely logged into my system to install a new application. I told
him to watch something to see if he knew what it was. While he was
logged into my system remotely, using a remote user profile, these
applications launched perfectly. When he logged out, they would hang
again.
