View 4 RepliesI have reformatted by hardrive and blah however, in firefox and IE whenever I attempt to scroll down it goes all 'blocky' like a beast. Before I could just scroll nice and smoothly. Now its like an earthquake each time I do.

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I operate the scroll bar, instead of a smooth scroll down or up the page, the scrolling occurs in jerks, making the page appear to "ripple". I am using windows XP. In addition, when I watch DVDs the crarity is not so good. It has only just started happening.

View 6 Replies View Relatedsometimes if i stop using a browser window for about 10mins, the browser seems to stop seeing the internet (until i reboot). this happens with both internet explorer and firefox. it brings up 'cannot find server' etc, as if i had no active connection. although all my other programs are using the internet fine, MSN messenger, limewire, download managers etc i recently reinstalled, im running windows xp pro with SP2 and all the latest updates. and have internet explorer 6, and mozilla firefox 1.5. i have an ADSL connection thru a wireless router.

For non-AOl Internet requests (simple example, when I install a program and try to register it - or even for when Media player 11 tries to go to the internet to get album info when I play CDs), how can I route my requests through AOL? Even with AOL sined on and the web working in the browser pane of AOL Openride, I can't get IE to work beyond the Sonicwall firewall though the AOL browser does (except, for instance, requets to view My eBay, for instance). I have Pc-Cillin security and Windows XP Media Center on a Dell Inspiron 1501 with AMD x2 CPU, 1GB RAM, 80Gb HDD, etc.I'm guessing the answer lies in RRAS or a third-party product. I can handle technical answers though the les outside references the better (time is hard to come by for everyone :)) Happy New Year to all!
View 11 Replies View RelatedI can't get a new IE6 browser window to open up by clicking the "e" on my lower taskbar. When I sign onto the internet via NetZero, their start page opens up sometimes, but usually it doesn't. If it does open, it takes a long time to load and I really can't do anything on that page anyway. I've been having this problem for about 2 weeks now, so over this time I've tried doing restore operation, using several different dates, but nothing has helped. I thought about reinstalling IE6, but that looks to be a problem since IE7 beta is the latest thing, plus I don't know if I might mess up something within XP anyway.

View 1 Replies View RelatedThis problem is that I have an active internet connection (dial-up) but neither of my two browsers (IE6 and Netscape) can find any websites. This is running XP Pro.It's as if the connection isn't recognized as being there? I've tried pinging but that doesn't work either.What can go wrong between having an active connection (shown on the task-bar icon) and having it accessible to applications? What can I check on?

This problem has not lasted very long, my computer is 4-5 years old, and I have run Norton antivirus many times to eradicate the problem.

My DSL is working fine with a connection speed of 100mgs. Everytime I open either browser it only leads to a dead link. I went to command prompt and pinged Yahoo and the ping was succesful

View 3 Replies View RelatedRight after my computer is finishes booting, suddenly there's a prompt telling me that Internet Explorer wants to change my Internet Protection settings. Then it asks me if I want to give IE permission to change these settings. Of course not (I think?). And the problem is still there. I connect with Verizon DSL, but when I go on Internet Explorer, the browser doesn't work properly- it says "Web Page Unavavailable While Offline"- what's up with that?! I even checked the status of my connnection- "Connected"! It's just retarded.

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy friend did a windows recovery after he had a black screen when starting windows. Both IE and Firefox had slow connectivity yet I had him do a speedtest with speakeasy.net and it showed good speeds. He says the longer the computer is on, the slower is a surfing the internet. CPU usage is normal.
internet speeds:
2500kbps/400kbps
Could the recovery have messed with his computer networking drivers? He used a gateway recovery disk. His computer is either a gateway or dell computer.
I am having a problem with my computer.When I try to close applications like internet browser, real player, dxdiag there comes a blue screen and it says something about memory dump error. It says beginning to dump and so on. This started happening aftr the installation of Sp2 where as before there were no service packs installed.
View 14 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to have a default Browser? I want every program that has links to open up in say. Firefox, I have tried setting it as my default browser in the settings option, and in "Set programs access and defaults". It works quite well... But can I get MSN Messenger to open up in that browser? When I click on my e-mails or MSN Space Etc. It opens up in Internet Explorer. Is there ANY way to open it in my default browser?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am half way computer literate, but this one has me. I am hoping someone can tell me where to look. When I open Internet Explorer, my home page (www.google.com) opens.When it is finished loading, it automatically redirets to yahoo mail login page. The catch is, all my browsers windows that are open will be changed too. If I hit "stop" before the page is loaded, then hit "refresh", this action does not occur. I have Microsoft updates automatically downloade do my computer. I have the latest MacAfee anti-virus on my computer and have run the latest scan. I have run Microsoft beta spy-ware, ad aware and yahoo's version. I am not seeing anything.

View 8 Replies View RelatedWhen I attempt to play any type of video or video games at full screen or doublesize resolution, the display becomes slow and choppy.
Is there a way to check whether this is due to the computer being slow
or due to videocard incompatibility?
It's the latter case, but I am not so sure. The PC is a Pentium II 333 MHZ, with a 128 RAM, which I believe is quite slow to run WinXP.
My old pc was a Pentium 200, with also 128 RAM, but it played full
screen videos without problem. The OS was Win98.
Should I uninstall WinXp on the new PC and install Win98?
System Info:
Windows XP SP2
AMD Athlon 64 3400+

When I try to play video files the video will pause for a split second every few seconds and I don't know what the problem is. In fact my computer is running much slower than normal lately. I've gotton rid of unused programs, I've run SpyBot, and I've updated my video drivers.
i have a problem with audio on all internet buffers and it wasnt doing this before i tried installing the latest version of winamp 5.56. it gave me an error message saying the file was corrupted, allowing me to ignore, retry, or abort. i tried ignore and it gave me the message again so i just aborted. after that, any internet buffers have problems. for example, on Internet when watching videos, the video plays just fine, but the audio is choppy but still in sync with the video. video and sound will play for like 10 seconds and then the sound will cut out for 2 or 3 seconds only to come back still in sync with the video.
i have the same issue with netflix and listening to online radio stations.
this is not a slow internet problem
My audio and video has been EXTREMELY slow and choppy. I ran a DirectX diagnostic and came up with the following error:
Directplay test results: Failure at step 9 HRESULT=0x80158185(error code)
No matter what program I'm using (word, excel, firefox) , when I type, my cursor freezes/stutters causing every fifth or sixth letter I type to not show up. When I hold down a directional arrow within text, the curser freezes for a second, maybe twenty letters along. I have Norton's and Spyware Doc running, but this still happens when I shut them off. I'm trying to figure out if there's something running that I don't know of that's causing this, because it's really annoying, I usually have to type and re-type passwords three or four times before all the letters show up.
View 14 Replies View RelatedWhen closing a an active box on my desktop, it is choppy and seems to close in about 4 stages..like a curtain going down very slowly. Also, if I move an active box on my desktop, it leaves a trail of maybe 15-20 box images trailing behind it for a few seconds. Never had this before. But..only if at my desktop screen. If I have a bunch of windows/boxes open, boxes close quickly and if moved leave no 'trail' behind them
View 4 Replies View Relatedevery since i reformatted my computer, its been very choppy. What I mean is whenever i scroll down it's not very smooth at all. Its like it's moving in sets. A friend of mine actually reformatted my computer and told me that I have to install VGA?. I have the cd that came with my computer but there are many files that are on the cd, the cd is called "MainBoard Xp Support" PC Chillin 2000. I don't know which files to install since VGA driver has about 5 or 6 .exe files. I was wondering if someone could help me through this process and take me step by step on how to get rid of this choppy graphic problem.
