| My first post so hope this is in the right place. Had a problem with my laptop for a couple of weeks now. Can best describe it simply as follows: If I open up my home page (Mozilla browser or IE) and click onto news, invariabl, in a short time after switching between the various new stories, or, changing the sub menu to sport or other alternative section, my screen gets stuck or freezes and I have to log off or restart to connect to the site again. This happens with most sites where I flick between menu''s and not just news sites as mentioned above. I have tried removing toolbars, flashplayer etc after advice but nothing changes, I have had the lapltop scanned for virus and have most recently uninstalled Vista which was preloaded and replaced with XP....... Any help/advicesuggestions would be much appreciated.  |

| Get the correct graphics drivers for your laptop's graphics chip. If that fails, try a new browser. |

| Toshiba Satellite Pro A300D. I think I have found the info now thanks. I have run a driver update test and found the driver ATI Radeon x1250 out of date but not so far able to download update other than downloading (and paying for) driver update software. |

| It turned out to be a combination of 2 problems. There was a virus which I had removed but also a problem with the ADSL connection which was resolved eventually by the provider. Thanks for responding. |
