Slow scroll or 'restore'/'maximize'

[Guest]

I just reinstalled Windows XP (first try at doing so, as well). Everything
seemed to load fine, but now when I scroll on any page (not just the web) the
response is very slow. It's almost as if it reloads the page, just slightly
up or down. It's a choppy scroll, and is very slow. Also, when I click to
'restore' or 'maximize' a window, it seems like a very choppy reload as well.
I makes browsing the web very painful.

Your video adapter drivers probably need to be reinstalled.
Visit the support web site of the manufacturer of your video
card adapter and download the latest drivers.

Before installing them, uninstall the old drivers. In your
Control Panel, open the Add or Remove Programs applet
and look for your video drivers to uninstall.

If you happen to have a notebook computer, visit the notebook
manufacturer's support website to download the correct video
adapter drivers for your specific notebook model.

After installing a fresh set of drivers, right-click on your
desktop and select Properties > Settings, change the Color
Quality to "Highest (32 bit), then adjust your Screen Resolution
to your liking, then click on Apply.
