Smooth scrolling or lack of...

[Guest]

Sorry if this a repost, and I accept it's not the most burning of issues, but
I can't get pages in IE6 to scroll smoothly no matter what boxes I check and
it's driving me nuts. I have tried all combinations of 'enable smooth
scrolling' and 'enable page transitions' to no avail.

I don't have any service packs installed - is there perhaps a specific one
that I need?

Thanks for your help,

m.s

Hi mustard.sundae

Try the following and see if it helps: For your protection, you should
visit the Windows Update site and have it do a scan to see which updates you
need and install them.

Go to Tools>internet Options>Advanced tab>
Scoll down under browser to Use smooth scrolling and make sure it's checked.

Also try updating your video drivers

or......

Find the information on your video driver. Then go to the website for mfg.
of the video driver and look for the update to download and install. There
may also be a Update Driver button on the dialog box you can use to go
direct to the update download site.

Try reducing hardware acceleration:
Right click on the Desktop on an open area,
Properties>Settings>Advanced>Troubleshoot
Move the slider back to the left a little and test to see if that helps.
Try it at increments until you get all the way to the left end to see if
that helps.

Hope this helps
