I have not done a complete reinstall yet but ...................

Hiya,

Well you wont believe this but ha ha I figured it out. I needed to update my drivers and sooooo wooohoooo lol.

If it would not have been for you John and cor-el with all your things to check I would never have known.

I will let you know if this is only a temp fix but looks to be ok now oh my lol.

Hiya Natalie, Glad it seems to be working out for you.

Note cor-el's #answer-859016 relates to your website. and how it should be improved, if you see your own website as being slow.

Yes so far so good and I have done what cor-el suggested as well. I also had alot of windows updates which seems strange as usually when I shut down as you know thats when they get done.

Will keep you posted :)

Hiya,


This is the damsel in distress again. I am at my wits end. I reinstalled Firefox yesterday and it worked perfect until today. I tried to access it again and back came all the problems of a spinning wheel not going to the website etc. What is with this it changed overnight lol I dont think so. I have a feeling many are having this issue so is this a problem that has not been addressed yet? I have been working with this since March and I need it to work perfectly. It will work too for a while if I do the reset on it but them back to same ole issues

Anyways I have installed Chrome also as Firefox use to be so reliable now oh my.

Trust me I have done everything asked of me except creating a new profile.

Thanks ahead of time
