Have just installed xp pro sp3 on my old system. Celeron 1.8, 4gb ram, ssd sata3 120gb, geforce 310. I have installed spybot, cc cleaner, latest nvidia drivers, Samsung ssd drivers/enabled raid, and turned off hardware acceleration.

Websites load and scroll slowly but YouTube videos work smoothly on 1080p full HD and full screen. What's up with that?

What Firefox are you using? Is it up to date?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac Options) key, and then starting Firefox. Is the problem still there?

Start your Computer in safe mode with networking. Then start Firefox. Try Safe web sites. Is the problem still there?

See if this helps.

Flash block {web link} Never be annoyed by a Flash animation again! Blocks Flash so it won't get in your way, but if you want to see it, just click on it
