I have had 32-bit Vista running on this laptop for well over a year. All updates are done when they appear. When I do a spell check of my email, more often than not the spell check causes an error (no codes given) that asks if I want to restart the application - no real choice, of course. Often I even lose the saved draft and start all over (I now save to a text editor before doing a check). The language is English and always has been. This is my only Vista machine so I can't say if it happens elsewhere. Does anyone know of a reason this may be happening and how I can fix it?
