How to stop Jumpy/Choppy Scrolling in Applications such as Internet Explorer

Knowing what drivers you need:

Before we can go downloading drivers we need to know what our video card actually is, to do this we are going to use a free tool called Aida32 which can be found here:
http://www.majorgeeks.com/download181.html

Once you have downloaded and extracted Aida32, run the Aida32.exe file to launch the application.

Upon running Aida32 there will be a list down the left hand side. Click Double-Click “Display” and choose “PCI / AGP Video”. In the window on the right hand side it will tell you what your video card is, in this case mine is a “nVIDIA GeForce4 Ti4800SE”.

Finding out what our video card is using Aida32

Getting the Video Drivers from the manufacturers website
Luckily for me my video card is very mainstream and shouldn’t be too hard to find the driver for. Since my video card is made by nVidia it makes sense to look on the nVidia site (http://www.nvidia.com) first. No matter what brand your videocard is, the steps should be similar. If you cannot your video card creator’s website I recommend going to the website http://www.driverguide.com and searching for them.

On the nVidia site there is a link up the top called “Download Drivers” which most video card manufacturers have in their menus somewhere. I clicked it and was asked to choose what my video card is which we now know thanks to Aida32.

In the first box I chose “Graphics Driver” since that is what I am after, in the second box I chose “GeForce and TNT2″ as my video card is part of the GeForce series (but not a “Geforce Go 7800 GTX”). In the third box I chose Windows XP as that is my current operating system, then pressed “GO!” which took me to the download.

    Have you triied driverguid.com they seem to always have what I am looking for. I have even found drivers for input/output devices to run on new opperating systems even though the manufacture didn’t release any.

    Downloading new video card drivers worked! It took the Driver Installation Wizard about 15 minuets to locate the driver, but it finally found the correct driver. Everything scrolls smoothly. Thanks Brice.

    wow awesome solve. Its nice to come across a solution for your exact problem. worked for me. I did a disk clean and then a disk defragmentation and then the scrolling was choppy in my internet browser and several other programs such as acrobat reader as well as choppy movement of open windows. I found this page, followed directions exactly, restarted my windows XP pc and things were good as new.
    Thanks.

    Hi nicky,

    I had the same problem you are having. What you need to do is type the name and model of your computer into a search engine and look for any page that gives you the specs for your particular computer (they usually tell you what the onboard graphics card is too). If you don’t know what model your computer is, download Belarc Advisor…

    http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

    This program gives you most of the information about your computer… although it may not recognize your graphics card, it will give you the name and model of your computer which will help you find your graphics card over the net.

    I hope this helps.
