Vista problem

Hi all, I had to buy a new laptop because in the old one the Lcd screen get broken.

I use it for work so I have bought a very good one, with large screen and high performances, but there is Windows Vista installed (In the old one there was xp).

The problem is that if I run the same macro in both the pc the new one is 9 time more slow than the old one: the old pc took 10 second and the new one 90.

I have tried with program for benchmark calculation and the new pc has been very fast.

I have only got problem with the macro but it simply orders a list with 9000 rows and 8 columns.

I have reinstalled office and the sp1 but nothing.

The problem is that this excel file will grow up but I can't downgrade to xp for driver and warranty problem.

Does anyone know why vista is so slow using the macro and how can I fix it?

Thank you very much

Post the macro? I doubt it's an issue qith Vista and I presume you have already thought about antivirus and office version and that they are the same.

When you run the macro, have task manager open to see how much resources the macro uses.
