Ok, I got this laptop for xmas. its a Dell 1700 Vostro. I love it to death but it came with Vista. My buddies are IT guys and they said Vista is garbage. I dont like it too much but does have a few neat features. ANYWAYS, back on topic...

the only site im really having problems with is the one i am on the most, IA. It keeps changing the colors on me and I have to keeo rechanging the colors to Matrix, red, green, girlie, everything to UPDATE the pages. I dunno why this is. but once i CP again it'll go back to another color and not be updated. explain? i was gonna change to XP once i save everything.

You got the computer for xmas and you have already screwed it up? It doesn't take you long does it. Just remember, it's a lot longer drive to drop it off for me to fix now.

Stop using internet explorer. Download either: Firefox or Safari

Try using one of the other browsers and see if you have the same problem. If you dont then theres probably something wrong with your settings in IE.

its IE, i sued to have problems with IE on this site too on my moms pc and she has vista. I even had problems on my old pc with Xp. IA and IE dont like each other for seom reason. every pc i get on has firefox on it...lol once u get used to the little differences its alot easier.
