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>
