Excel Hangs under XP64

[Jeffrey]

Whenever I have an excel book open and then open another the initial workbook
hangs for about ten minutes before being usable again. The new one I opened
works great until I open another workbook where the pattern repeats.
Is this an Excel issue of a Windows XP64 issue?
And what exactly is the issue? I had disabled auto calculate in case that
was the problem.

Re: Excel Hangs under XP64

Are the spreadsheets local or on a share?

Honestly, I'm not seeing any issue at all on Excel 2003. I haven't been
running 2007 here.
