Hi,

I've just reinstalled after a wipe, XP - now
moving a window with the mouse or scrolling are very ugly, sluggish
and even a wavy effect appears, I've tried changing the config. and smooth
scrolling
but it may be a screen resolution issue -is that possible ? - anyone any
ideas, it wasn't
like that before, my windows moved very cleanly and entirely, now it's
making me
feel seasick just to move one !

Good week,

Nash

After you install an operating system, you must then install drivers for
all your hardware. This includes your motherboard, video card (which is
why you are getting the visual problems), sound card, etc.

Never get drivers from Windows Update. Get them from:

1. The device mftr.'s website; OR
2. The motherboard mftr.'s website if hardware is onboard; OR
3. The OEM's website for your specific machine if you have an OEM
computer (HP, Dell, Sony, etc.).

Read the installation instructions on the website where you get the drivers.

To find out what hardware is in your computer:

1. Read any documentation you got when you bought the computer.
2. If the computer is OEM, go to the OEM's website for your specific
model machine and look at the specs (you'll be there to get the drivers
anyway)
3. Download, install and run a free system inventory program like Belarc
Advisor. The older Aida32 is good for this, too.
