| 601833 | 2007-10-15 19:26:00 | I have a strange problem Recently I have had to reinstall XP and it has a glitch. I turn my screensaver on every night and leave the computer running, when I used to do it when my computer was full of stuff and running well I had no problem I clicked apply and ok and the response from the window was instant. Now I click apply and there is a good 2 second delay during that time the window information semi-disappears then it comes right and ok is available to click. Now this doesn't seem a big deal but I am worried its systematic of something larger and since I use it every night it is rather annoying. Any ideas? |

| 601836 | 2007-10-15 21:06:00 | Drivers for your graphics card installed or are you using the default Windows ones? | CYaBro (73) | ||
| 601837 | 2007-10-15 21:26:00 | Again fully up to date My drivers are 98% complete according to driverguide.com where I have an account. The 2% is cause if you know driverguide you have probably never seen a 100% Its not something as simple as updates or drivers, I am sure everything I have is exactally the same as I had in the last install Running XP Pro |
