Quicken Premier 2009 lockups

May 09, 2009 3 Replies

I have used Quicken since the early 1990s and never had any real problems. I have been using Quicken Premier 2007 since it came out and it has been fine. I installed Quicken Premier 2009 about a week ago, and it locked up several times. I know switching Quicken files caused it to lockup a couple of times, but I can't remember what I was doing the other times it locked up. I could close it down and it would start up fine. Still, it made me nervous and today I uninstalled 2009 and went back to 2007.



Is there a general consensus as to what is causing the problems? I have not split up my data files, so I'm sure they are fairly large; but if



2007 Quicken handled them fine, why wouldn't 2009?

I am using the latest version of Windows XP; I have 3 gigs of ram and plenty of space on my hard drives. I have a Pentium 4 2.8 ghz processor, which should be more than adequate.


I formatted my hard drive and did a complete reinstall of all programs. Quicken 2009 Premier seems to be working now. I think the only thing I have not reinstalled is my printer, an HP C7280. Its software and drivers cause conflicts with Microsoft Office 2007, and maybe other programs. Is anyone else using one of these printers and Quicken 2009?

I have problems with a Logitech wireless mouse. Q2009 was very slow and would act like it was hung up. As soon as I replaced the mouse my problems went away. There are lots of posting on this problem if you do a Google search.

Thanks. I have a logitech mouse, but not wireless.
