Internet Explorer 5.5 (win2k)

[Mr. Cold]

I am using the 5.10 beta drivers with my G400 Max under win2k, and sometimes when I scroll down or up on pages w/ lots of graphics and complex [D]HTML it stutters.

Is this Microsoft's problem or Matrox's or both?

Never noticed it to be honest

I've noticed the same thing using Windows Me.
Example: The menu on the left stutters while scrolling...

I get it on my laptop (win2k, IE 5.5) so I don't think its a Matrox problem

Another annoying thing in IE5.5, is that if you try to go to a web site and it fails, then hit refresh and it works (which is annoying itself), but the title of the browser window stays '...Cannot be displayed...'

I've had the refresh problem. Also I've noticed if you tick off the automatic detection in the Lan settings the browser finds web sites more quickly. It seems to try and detect every cache server out there.
Yes I'm on a lan before anyone asks.

That's why i,ve stayed with 5.01. I'll wait for SP1 for 5.5.

Guru,

If you're referring to "legalize" then thanks. The War on Drugs is the biggest political sham in history and is making the U.S. more and more of a POLICE STATE every day.

But that's off-topic... Check <A HREF="http://www.cannabisnews.com">this site</A> if you want to follow the absolute ridiculousness of the War on (Some) Drugs.

You gotta ask yourself this: Do you value civil liberty?

[orangejulius]

You might try playing with the smooth scrolling settings.

Who needs all that DHTML shockwave java-loading garbage anyway? I turn it off.

Mr. Cold,

i must thank you for that link!!!

i have always been amazed at politicians and their "constituancey" when they enact drug laws making "MJ" illlegal, while at the same time smoking a cigarett and drinking a martini...talk about nonsense!

your exactly right about the sham concerning the "war on drugs"

IE 5.5 + Win2k is evil.
I had a very annoying problem, if the net connection would fall, I couldn´t reconnect unless I rebooted. I had to reinstall win2k to get rid of it. Some days ago I installed IE 5.5 again and I got the same problem again. So I´m 99% sure it´s IE 5.5 problem.
