| My computer is running funky. Can anyone help? My computer is being weird.. kinda jumpy-like (sorry.. don't know the technical terms). I bought a new program that is running kind of weird. I'm not sure if it's because of the program or what. Is there anything I can run to solve the problem?

| It keeps freezing. When I type it seems to have a delay. I installed Flip Video (which also keeps freezing). I use Windows XP.

| Video takes a lot of memory...and a fast graphics card. Try un-install the software and see if that makes things better. If not you may need professional help. Some one that can reformat. |

| hmm...I would try to uninstall the program and reinstall it to see if that changes anything. If that seems to not help then the program might be using too much space up on your computer and you might want to invest in adding memory to your computer. Thats all I can really put together with the lagg. |

| I have excellent advise for you.... get a Mac! Seriously, why don't you remove the software and try reinstalling it. It could be your software is just not compatible with your computer, especially if you don't have enough memory or ram left in your hard drive. Or... Maybe your computer has fleas! or that bug from your avatar is jumping around inside.

| You can find out what's wrong and what to do about it here: http://www.pcpitstop.com It's free, and safe I've been using it for about 3 years now, and my computer still runs like new (It's 3.5 years old!) I've never had a puter last longer than 2 years until I started using that site

| The Flip camera is weird because you don't install anything.. the software just opens when I plug the camera in.

Thanks again! ETA: How often do you run the scan? Do you do the full scan every time?
