Acrobat 9 Pro - Windows 7 - Word siezing when printing

Folks,

I am a first time poster but long time Acrobat user. Recently upgraded to windows 7 and thus Acrobat 9. My machine is a sub 1 year old Dell Studo XPS with 4 gigs of memory and lots of space on the solid state hard drive.

My Problem:

As you know, when printing to PDF the dialogue box appears to name the PDF. When that happens Microsoft word goes into a "not responding" mode. If I happen to click on the screen it crashes and I need to restart the app. If I click on the PDF dialogue box and print, then the not responding mode goes away and it acts like normal.

I am also having some issues with IE where I click on a PDF and it loads a blank screen. There is a warning dialogue box that pops up but its blank. If I close both and reload, it loads perfectly.

Any ideas?

P.S. - I just loaded the 9.3 update about 5 minutes ago. Problem was pre-update

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 9.2, Windows

Hi brigont,

logon as local admin, delete the pdf printer and reboot. Now logon as local admin again and reinstall the pdf printer. To do this add a local printer, choose "../pdf." port, when asked for driver location choose programm files / acrobat 9/ xtras / pdf***** (****=i forgot). There u find the inf files u need. Now you can logon on with domain user again and it works.

My customer has a brand new dell inspiron notebook with 4gig ram and windows7 and had the same problems.

Greets,

I purchased a new Windows 7 desktop and installed Acrobat Pro 9.
In the "Print" dialogue box it shows correct info and preview, but when it prints it
1) prints small image at 1/2 size on the right half of the page, and
2) spits out 2d blank page.

All othger documents (MS Office) are printed fine. The printer is Xerox Phaser.

Any ideas?
