Corel X3 continually freezes

I have had plenty of issues with Vista and all are sorted except Corel X3. It
continually freezes and requires a restart even when working with small files.

There doesn't seem to be any specific trigger. You can work away for hours
with no problems and other times continual freezes even after restart.

Running Vista 32bit on a Duo core 2.13, 3mb ram, 512kb video card. All
software is has latest updates.

Appreciate any suggestions other then XP. Travelled so far to turn back now!

Have you upgraded to the Vista compatible version?

What do you mean by Corel X3 - Corel WordPerfect Office Suite X3, by any
chance? If so I am running it on Vista Ultimate 32 bit with no problems.
Both version 12 and X3 are installed. Have you upgraded to Service Pack 2?

Yes. Upgraded and I thought it made some improvements but didn't solve the
problem.

Ok, sorry I'm not familiar with Corel Draw X3. If you haven't already, you
might want to post to a Core newsgroup for Corel Draw.
