When I click on Internet Explorer it tries to load and gets 75% and freezes. I am unable to do anything except go to task manager and end task. The rest of my system works fine, if I try to load it again I get the same thing. It is my home PC and I have been using for several years with no issues, I have Norton Virus Protection and no viruses show. I am on dial up at home. Any suggestions?

I know nothing about computers, I had to ask how to turn it on. Now it disconnects me from internet A LOT, and at the worst times. I expect it any minute now too. How do I fix this? Do I need to buy a new computer? This one is part old and part new.. I thought I was buying a legal system. When it says there are upgrades for my computer, it wont do them. Please help, I'm about to give up on the whole thing! Why doesn't it just tell me what to to and where to go to do it?

If I start my Computer, I will have to wait about 5 minutes before I can start using the Internet, or any other program. Is there anything I can do to speed it up (my computer knowledge is limited), or would it be better to ask for professional help?

Some programs unfortunatly require I run IE to view them. But IE is a problem. I've upgraded to IE 7.0 and downloaded Java Runtime, but when I open i open IE, it eventually locks up and I can't determined why. Also It always asks for a error report to be sent to the gods at Microsoft, why can't they correct it??? I wish everything would just run on Firefox it would make life simple and happy.

I was looking at their site and I noticed they now have a free download, but it says up to 1.00 kpbs. Do they mean kbps? If so that is a slow as hell download, but I guess it would make sense since they wouldn't be making the big money off you.

Thanks

I have a Dell Dimension 8400 PC and Windows XP.
When using Microsoft Updates, I was installed all of the updates - custom and express - and restarted my computer as instructed. But when my screen came back on, the resolution was very low. I went to Properties and Settings and it said that "the currently selected graphics display card cannot be used. It was written for a previous version of Windows and is not compatible with this version. The system has started using the default VGA driver."

Now my computer is using 4 bits color and its terrible. I know I need to download an upgraded driver from the Dell website but I don't know which one I need. Please help. 10 points to someone who can provide me with the name of an appropriate download and url for its location.

I believe I have a virus or perhaps a trojan horse that has pretty much frozen up my computer. It looks as if some unwanted programs have been installed onto my computer and now when it starts up, the antivirus freezes along with everything else upon loading and then the computer restarts itself over and over. I have tried to perform a system restore and even a system recovery to no avail. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
