Default MS Access on Lenovo laptops

I'm having a problem with MS Access 2007 that appears to be limited to new
Lenovo laptops. They are using Office 2007 on Windows XP Pro.
I have vba code in my forms that do a lot of work. The 'calculating...'
message is shown when it is running. On most system this message only
displays for 1-2 seconds. On the Lenovo's it is always showing 'Calculating'
and some fields that are filled with DLookup functions are not working or
take several minutes to work.
I have remove all antivirus and firewalls to see if that was the problem,
with no change. Any ideas?

Default Re: MS Access on Lenovo laptops

Try msconfig, disable all startups reboot, excepting the msconfig msg &
retest
If still a problem in msconfig hide all MS services, disable the rest,
reboot & retest
Its probably something running in the background

Thanks. Turns out that the nwiz.exe (Nvidia control) was causing the trouble.
With it turned off in the msconfig startup group, problem solved.
