IE8 is the worst followed by Chrome and Opera. I really wonder why? It has nothing to do with smooth scrolling being enabled or not. And it's particularly bad when browsing GMail, but it's even noticable on low resource sites like TL. Have any idea? | ||

However, if i open up a video in VLC, pause it, then open up the same video (or another video) in windows media player, it plays in perfect colour (and vice versa.) i checked device manager and all graphics and video stuff is installed properly, what could the problem be? Broken video overlay, either your drivers / video card is broken or the overlay settings are busted. I can take a look at it if you PM me the details. | ||

Sounds like video drivers are not installed properly or hardware acceleration isn't functioning. | ||

Do you have CPU Throttling enabled? If not BW maxes out your CPU and it may be overheating. | ||

That sounds plausible, unfortunately I can't update my drivers because there are no Windows 7 drivers for the ATI Mobility Radeon X700. They only have mobility drivers for the newest cards on the ATI page, so I'm stuck with the ones Windows Update installed for me D: Everything else works fine though.. can play games, Aero Glass works. | ||

I also never defragment my computer, is that horrible? Also, can laptops be run 24/7 or is that bad? I bought a Coolermaster Pad but does this just only mitigate the pain I'm putting it through? I like to make my virtual memory as large as possible, it seems to make the computer run a lot faster - are there any adverse effects to this or an optimal size to make it? | ||

Using WRT54G, Vista 64 bit. Is it because of router incompatibility? Also, my sister (using the same router via wired connection) uses XP, and when she logs in, the same thing happens too. If it's my router's problem, what router brand and model do you recommend? | ||

Also I have the latest intel drivers and I can't change the aspect ratio to "maintain aspect ratio" which i assume is a driver problem. Using an acer 5570 with Core Duo, T2450. For me, it helps to quit all programs using DirectSound (Winamp etc.) before playing. To fix colors in menus, it's sufficient to keep the screen resolution settings windows open - don't ask me why. This is what I do and I haven't had any crashes since. Another trick I've heard is manually assigning starcraft.exe to only one CPU core in the task manager because apparently it doesn't work properly with multi-core CPUs. That's not necessary for me though. I'm running Windows7 RC build 7100 on an Intel Core2 Quad. | ||

When I was having that problem I simply replaced the router (same model), transferred the information, and all was well. | ||
