Hi folks,
I hope the holidays have been good to you all.
I have a issue with a HP a420n, with X-P home, SP-3.
When I am done with a page and click the X on the upper right corner,
it sometimes takes 15 seconds to complete the process and close the
page. I realize 15 seconds isn't long, but, it sure is annoying.
Do any of you have any idea of what's going on and how I can correct
the problem.
Thanks,
Steve

Pages?

In what application?

A web browser? What version? What add ons (like extra tools bars) are
you using? Is it configured to load the same pages the next time you
start it (the browser needs to write that information to the hard disk).

Are you clicking the close button for the whole application window, or a
close button for a document/tab within the window's data area?

How much actual memory (usually RAM strips) is installed in the
computer. If the application is using memory resources beyond the actual
electronic RAM installed in the computer the operating system might
need some time to clear the overflow from the hard disk's page file.
