Well, I don't know what the problem is. You see I have a 466mhz Celeron A, 192MB of RAM, a 20.5 GB hard drive, and two Voodoo II 12MB 3D cards (in SLI). But the thing is when I'm viewing a webpage or reading an email, my scroll bar seems to "stutter" when ever I try to scroll up or down (with either my mouse or the keyboard). Why is it doing this??? I mean I know that it is not staining my hardware, so what gives? Well the only thing that I could think of, was to turn down the hardware acceleration. So I turned it down one notch...nothing happened. Then another notch...finally! Yeah, that my have taken care of that problem but it opened up several more! Like when I try to run a game that requires some type of software rendering, it won't run until I turn the hardware acceleration back up again (but that means restarting my computer EVERYTIME that I want to play this game). It's also caused a few other issues but I can't remember exactly what they were (usually couldn't run a program). What I want to know is if there is any other possible answer to my current problem. Please let me know (and so far a "clean install of Windows 98 didn't help).
Thanks alot,
Jason

P.S. Here is some more info on my current problem.
Ok, when you move or sroll the slide bar by using either the
scrolling wheel on the mouse or by using the keyboard, it seems to get
"behind" in the process. Like if I were to scroll down once, I would roll
the wheel down some but the scroll bar doesn't respont instantly like it
should. There is a very short pause from when the wheel is rolled to when
the bar is moved. I hope that clears up any misconceptions.
