I have an issue with the fill. I like the way that some thing change right when I'm changing the color but most times. I can change a simple box to red and the screen goes black, the computer is thinking, I can go get coffee, check mail on iPhone and come back 5 actual minutes and its still sitting there.Is there a way to turn the magic off? Where I can open the fill box, change the color and when I close it, its there. Not automatic. It take a really long time for the color to "happen" on the screen.
Well Kenneth you could see about deleting the Temp files. ( I'm not a Windows 8 fan.) So I don't know the best way to do that Windows 7 doesn't do to well with a lot of them, and more than likely the video card is built into the mobo, and you maybe able to have the tech give it a little more use of the ram, with the ram that's in the computer you may want 3 or 4 gig for the video. It has been a long time since I played with a Dell.

I'll try that...Thanks again!

Based on the specs maybe corel just can't keep up
ok, your computer is too much powerful, so this is not the problem. Maybe it's a Windows conflict issue or a video card conflict. try using a different workspace, on Tools / options / workspace. btw yo can edit the fill using Propierties docker (Alt+enter) without need to edit fill (Shift+F11).
UPDATE: I finally got the IT guy in here. He was asking about my files, the size and how old or new they were. We looked at some of my past work(two days to a week old) and found that the images that I get, Templates from an approved company, are doubling and or tripling in size. The images that I get from our source here are 24-36Megs, I get them and resample them to size them down to 12Megs and under. For some reason, those files that I reduce are now 60-80 megs. Taking forever to open, difficulty in changing color, doing affects and sometimes printing. We stumbled across something that will be time consuming but it the file size is where its suppose to be when the image is copied from the original and pasted in a new work space. We still don't understand but he is going to contact some other people to see why my system saves my 11.7MB file to a huge 80MB.
Thanks so much guys for the help! You made us all dig a little deeper to find out what the problem is and I think we found it. We need to figure out how to fix it now.
Thanks again.
