Windows problems!

Just recently my laptop hard drive packed in so I had to get a new 1 and install all my programs again.

Since installing the new hard drive almost every time I click a link on a web page without going to "open in a new page" the page completely freezes up.

Has anyone ever had this problem or knows how to fix it?

 

which os and browser do you use ?
may be you are missing some brouse updates or OS service packs

 

Yeah that could be it actually.

Windows XP and IE(cough)

 

if haven't updated SP2 for Xp do it ASAP. XP without it is an open invitation to malwares. also you can try to upgrade IE to 7 beta. its little better than ie 6

 

Can't you get FF or Opera in Ireland, Weirfire?

Seriously, if you're running XP without the SP's, the computer is wide open.

 

Using FF now and it's working fine.

Anyone know where to download XP Home? (I've got a key for it) lol

 

Have you tried pouring Hot Chocolate into the keyboard

 

That was good!

I've got honey in mine!

 

you can get media from any where or just ask MS or your Laptop provider to ship it again. MS don't mind any use of media. only they are concern with key (it should be registerd with them)

 

lol I think thats why it broke in the first place! lol

I'll try contacting the laptop provider but I'm not too hopefull of getting anything from them.

 

i will have hot tea instead
