    hi all!
    I have a ati x1950 pro 256mb card.
    went to driver genius pro and i stated that i needed an update for card,grand!
    downloaded and installed it and now pages are lagging (like when i scroll down pages is reacting that millisecond slower and its so annoying!)
    anything i can do?
    is it to do with the ati catalyst settings?
    thanks in advance
    john

    If you can't work it out. You can always roll back the drivers.

    Or you could try and download them again and reinstall.

    tried system restore no joy there either!
    no idea what to do!
    next bold step might be to re install XP.
    any ideas anyone?
    thanks

    you could see in the device manager if there's any conflicting drivers,
    or, deactivate google sidebar..?
    ..short of putting in more memory.

    might this be psychological?
