Help reqd please

[Bill]

For some reason my computer(or child) has changed the way my pages scroll. It used to be nice and smooth but now it is like some weird tiling effect. I have looked in all the settings I can think of but cant see anything to change. Any help appreciated.

If your running XP can you not just do a system restore to before it was fucked up.

What browser are you using? If you're using Firefox you could try reinstalling it

System restore will not work for any days in the last 2 weeks and it is happening on Firefox and IE.

right click desktop click on properties then click settings

bottom right click advanced click monitor then click

screen refresh rate should be around 60 hertz

Might be that setting on your graphics card have been changed so that the computer is unable to render pages at the same speed.

Might need to download some video drivers.

Sixonway it just says " use default hardware settings" and no other options in the drop down menu. I also seemto have a virus in System Volume Information/restore. :dunno:

I think that system volume thing might be a red herring - sure i had that a year or two back.

 

Google it.

if you cant get with monitor option

try adapter bottom left list all modes

go for the highest option

[Bill]

On the highest as far as I can see, but thanks for the help.

Seem to have got rid of the virus( touch wood), but the scrolling thing is still there. Bit of a pain really :(

FFS I just lost this and have to retype:

 

Try Start > Control Panel > System > Advanced Tab > Settings under performance > Visual effects.

 

You can change so windows decides or you can set it to adjust for either best performance or best appearance. On you can set it up by custom. Hopefully this will do the trick.

Is this when you scroll with the scroll bar, or with the mouse wheel?

I was thinking that. You can set how the wheel acts in the control panel for the mouse

Why have i just read your avatar as saying 'enjoy coop'

[Bill]

It is the same with the scroll bar and the mouse wheel. Will try what Vivaldo said when I get home. Cheers guys

Update, problem solved. It seems the graphics card driver had been uninstalled. Re-installed it last night and jobs a goodun. Cheers for the help lads :thumbup:
