    Choppy/laggy when I drag windows on my laptop?
    « on: April 17, 2010, 08:40:21 PM »
    Hi, I just bought a new hard drive for my NEC Lavie LL750/B laptop which I bought in 2002 in japan because my other hard drive died. I installed WinXp onto my new hard drive but I encountered a new problem. The sound is not working and whenever I drag any windows or scroll a website, it gets choppy/laggy. I noticed that in my device manager there's question marks on some devices but I don't think they are related to GPU or soundcard. I don't think the updating works either in device manager because it keeps saying windows can't find the software. How can I fix this problem?

    Here's the pics of my device manager: http://www.flickr.com/photos/47191044@N06/

    You need to DLoad and install your MBoard chipset drivers...
    Re-boot afterwards.

    Right. Let's do this all in one post just to consolidate: Download and install ALL drivers for your system (sound, video, nic, etc) starting with the chipset driver.

      Thanks for the reply guys well my laptop has intel cpu and I went to the japanese NEC website http://121ware but they only had softwares and applications and I tried all their programs on my laptop. I need to use windows because I want windows software on it. The laptop originally came with the xp os and everything was working fine until the hard drive died and I had to replace it. The laptop probably came with a driver cd but I am still looking for it online and in my house.
