JMarc, Thanks for your reply. I don't think I am using any math macros... I am simply typing my math equations in. But there are several lines of equations in each math inset and there are lots of insets. I am not sure what "math preview" is... I'll google it and try enabling/disabling it. (I have instant preview set to off).
I am using a Dell Inspiron 5150. It has an Nvidia graphics card with 32Mb or memory. I keep the machine updated with Windows update so I think it should be running the latest drivers. Ken On 10/11/06, Jean-Marc Lasgouttes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

It may be that the math insets exercise some painting operations that are expensive on your system. What is you graphics card? Do you have the latest drivers? JMarc
