I'm running Windows XP Home on my new computer, and for some reason anything that requires scrolling lags when I scroll. I have no idea what's causing this and it is very annoying, anyone know how to fix it?

You might want to try to get more memory for your computer.

I have plenty of memory. That's not the problem, considering on my other computer I had way less memory and it was fine.

If you're using Firefox you need to enable 'smooth scrolling' in your preferences, if not you might want to turn your hardware acceleration down for graphics.

DOwnload the latest drivers for your graphics card etc. I had the same problem as you, I solved it when I downloaded and installed the latest drivers.
