i just got a dell E1705 inspiron laptop for my birthday and the first program that i downloaded was aim. for some strange reason, my IM/away message windows are extremely laggy when i try to drag them around the screen. i have no idea why it's doing this because a.) my computer is brand new and b.) it worked fine on my shitty old computer
i tried installing triton to see if that would work, but it ended up freezing. i also went and installed an older version of aim but my problem still persists. everything else works fine..it's just aim that's giving me problems. i have no idea how to fix it so im hoping someone on here can help. |

it's acctually your graphics card that would cause laggy display problems.
questions: 1- is the graphics card integrated or dedicated? things to try: 1- try terra IM for now. http://terraim.sourceforge.net/ 2- get your laptop off of a surface, and blow a fan on it. |
