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. |

^ i have the best graphics card dell offers for laptops, the nVidia GeForce 7900 GS...so im pretty sure that's not the problem.
QUOTE(twinkles6801 @ Oct 3 2006, 12:06 AM)  I had the same problem. I just got a new laptop from dell, and It did the same thing. I got advice to use a different version of aim, so I just searched for old versions, installed it and now it works great for me, plus its alot easier to use for me than the new triton version. do you know which older version you downloaded? |
