    Hi, I'm I having issues with my computer. I have Compaq Presario SR5110NX Desktop PC and it normally runs on vista but I prefer xp home so I installed that today and now I'm having problems with scrolling. Whenever I scroll the page a sort of break in the page occurs then it quickly reloads the page,giving kind of a wave effect. It's odd to describe unless you can see it. Anyways I am thinking that this is due to not having the right graphic driver for xp, but compaq only gives drivers for vista. (I can't think it would be anything else(viruses etc) because this happened directly after I installed and I tried changing the resolution but it didn't help). Any answers or suggestions of what I could do (what else may be causing this) or where I could get a graphic driver? Thanks.

    Welcome to WindowsBBS;)

    It probably is the graphic driver.
    Many Vista machine where built and there is/was NO need to make XP drivers...

    Thanks :) My problem is I don't have vista. My computer was a gift and the disc for vista wasn't purchased. So I can't just install vista again, I do have a copy of windows 7 but there aren't any drivers out for that version either.
