Page Scrolling problem

[Janice]

Hi,
I just formatted my computer and internet explorer 6 does
not seem to be working well. When i try to scroll down
the page there is some lagging in the movement, which
causes "waves" to form as i'm scrolling. kinda irritating.
Anyone who knows how to resolve this?

Thanks

Janice -

I'm not sure, but:
Have "enable smooth scrolling" checked in IE options>advanced tab?
Display properties>settings>advanced>adapter>Optimal (refresh rate)?
Can't think of anything else other than a Widows Update issue, but that
related to very fast scrolling IIRC.

Try the following and see if it will help.

There is an option to set smooth scrolling in the display properties in
Windows. See if that's checked. If not check it and see if that fixes the
problem.

Also, try updating your video drivers

Hope this helps.
