I had to add my two-cents. We had three systems running FM8 on XP SP2. Two had 1 GB of RAM, one had 2 GB. We had all the updates to Frame 8. We found FM8 would crash several times a day, and always whenever we used an MS Office app. The most frequent culprit was trying to open a mail attachment. Recently, one of us got a new system with a Core2Duo processor and 2 GB or RAM. No more crashes. We're currently lobbying for the other two systems to be upgraded.

Users around me report no slow down in their Outlook. Has anyone else had problems running FM8 concurrently with MS Office or other programs? Would a faster processor make a significant difference? Thanks, Charlie Kyle
