scrolling up or down appears in frames in IE 6 instead of a visually smooth
page ups and downs. Does anyone know why and how to fix it? I've just done a
fresh install of XP SP2.

thanks.

Hi,
In Internet Options> Advanced> Browsing, check "Use smooth scrolling."

Thanks Don,
That's already ticked on. Any other suggestions?

Another possibility... If you're scrolling with the mouse wheel, check mouse
settings to see that it's set to move one line at a time.

it was set at 3 lines and now changed back to 1. but still no luck. The
'waves' effect is from mouse wheel and click the scroll bar. It was fine
before I reformatted the PC and reinstalled XP-SP2. Can't figure out what
went wrong?!

Hi,
Maybe someone else will have a better idea, but...

Did the reinstall of XP rollback the graphics driver to an earlier version?
Start at Control Panel> Display> Settings> Advanced for information on your
video adapter/driver including (possibly) a link to the manufacturer's
website. The manufacturer's website should have information regarding
graphics driver versions.

Have you looked through Display Settings> Advanced for a setting which might
cause this?

After the reinstall, did you go to Windows Update for all necessary updates?
