Guest rita Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 I just purchased a new HP tx2510us tablet PC CPU 2.1 Ghz RAM 3Gig Vista OS Have comcast internet Max range Netgear wireless router I was told this was fast enough to do basic work like surfing the net, emails etc. even if i had 10 browser pages open all at once. However I seem to be getting a "not responding" message on my firefox / Mozilla page CONSTANTLY. This is going on all the time. The page keeps hanging for a long time. Has anyone faced a similar situation and solved the issue ? Please help me. Thanks Rita

Try these ones instead (and regular users of the newsgroups will appreciate it very much if you do not use Google Groups to post. You have a new reader built right into your Vista system as part of Windows Mail. Just click here for the main Vista group: http://news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.windows.vista.general Perhaps others here who use Firefox can recommend forums that are appropriate for Firefox discussions. I don't use it and so can't recommend any, unless maybe the ones here: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Support+Website+Forums -- Gary S.

Repost with details e.g. what version of Mozilla Firefox you installed under Win98. IIRR WinXP now uses Firefox 2.0.0.16 but Mozilla recommends v.1.???? for Win98. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)
Guest Dan Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Re: Mozilla / firefox -"not responding" constantly Don, FYI, I am using the latest version of Mozilla Firefox with 98 Second Edition and it works fine so you don't have to worry about using the latest version of 2.0.0.16 for 98 Second Edition. I have not tried version 3.x for Windows XP Professional because I am truly a legacy user even before security. <grin> "Don Phillipson" wrote: > "rita" <ritagoldman101@gmail.com> wrote in message > news:da17f047-3317-4b6d-be90-42a7dd3ee5a0@w7g2000hsa.googlegroups.com... > > > However I seem to be getting a "not responding" message on my > > firefox / Mozilla page CONSTANTLY. > > Repost with details e.g. what version of Mozilla Firefox you > installed under Win98.

One easy thing to try is to uninstall and reinstall FireFox. First, go to the Mozilla website and download and save the latest ver of FireFox to a folder you can find easily. Now uninstall FireFox and then reboot. Install the new FireFox and see what happens. This whole procedure shouldn't take more than around 10 min. If this doesn't solve the problem, then it probably is a problem with your ISP and/or your router and/or your modem. You will probably have more luck on a Vista or FireFox newsgroup or even one that deals with your router. Buffalo

Additionally, it may help also to use REGEDIT (if sure of what you are doing) to search for and remove all Firefox keys. I just did this to get out of the "Unresponsive script" error viz. 1. DL Firefox to software bank. 2. Uninstal Firefox 3. REGEDIT to remove all Firefox keys 4. Instal new Firefox. This works for me i.e. starts v.2.0.0.16 with no "Unresponsive script" delays. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)
