While Scrolling On Line, I freeze
I have done several clean re-installs and have the same result. While on line, while scrolling on a web page, i will freeze ( three -four times .)
I have had this p3, 650 mgz, 320 ram, toshiba laptop computer (win 98 se) for 2 years with no problems. I recently did a clean re-install and now this occassional scroll freeze when going from up and down.
It makes no different if i use the mouse key or the keyboard key to page scroll.
It happens with ie 5.1 or 6. It happens with ie and opera. I have downloaded and all sort of ways to fix the problem. I even called toshiba tech support and no solution.
Any suggestions? Remedies? Should i upgrade to windows xp and if so, which one.
otherwise- i am going to buy a new laptop. <yea right!... grin>
scrolling on line and freezing
thanks for your suggestion. if i was to upgrade it would be to xp pro.
but i am relunctant to do so- learning the ins/outs of a new op sys. i am tired of learning.. actually burned out. i was around from Dos 3.0 and its subsequent upgrades and all the windows versions 3.1 to 98se.
it is funny, i am avoiding trying to upgrade to xp. but i would like to figure out what is the problem that i have.
does anyone else have any idea to consider why i freeze while scrolling up/down while on line?
