Mystique graphic card display driver is used.
This is because Version 4.12 of the MGA Mystique graphic card display driver
is not compatible with Windows

(c) How to judge whether the phenomenon is the same or not
After changing the used graphic driver for the standard VGA driver, delete the
temporary data (*.emf) left in the temporary folder.
After that, try starting multiple Excel files.
The phenomenon seems to be the same if it does not occur by changing the
driver for the standard VGA driver.

If this phenomenon occurs, the temporary data (*.emf) will be left in the
temporary folder of the system.
You have to delete the remaining temporary data (*.emf) manually.
The temporary folder of the system is normally in "C:\Temp".
After that, take either of the following actions.
1) Use the graphic card and display driver which support Windows
R
Me.
2) Reduce the number of control objects pasted to the Excel files.
(2) Precautions for the use of EXCEL VBA
Do not set the page feed preview function in the application that uses EXCEL VBA.
Doing so can cause a memory leak or OS basic operation (file operation, printing
or other) fault.
(3) Precautions for the use of Microsoft
R
