Question
i_was_here
I recently did a clean install of Windows 8.1 and Office 2013. I noticed that Excel would crash the moment I attempted scrolling. Word, however didn't crash.
Here's the detailed info from the event log:
I searched online and previous people have recommended disabling Office's hardware acceleration but it didn't help. Next I found a tip about disabling "Animate controls and elements inside windows" under Windows' Visual Effects and this seemed to have solved the problem.
Now although its a fine workaround, I am curious why it would cause Excel to crash or what is the real cause. Heres my PC specs:
Windows 8.1 Pro
Office 2013 Home and Student
Athlon 64 X2 4800+
2GB DDR2
500GB hard disk
GeForce GTX 560
NVIDIA driver 327.23 (Windows 8.1 default)
