Re: Internet Explorer

Are you currently running IE6 or IE7?

Have you checked the computer manufacturer's website for available driver and BIOS updates?

I tried three different mice and it happens regardless.

I'm wondering if anyone is experiencing the same problem with IE that I
am.

When using IE 6 or 7 I scroll up and down pages using the wheel on my
mouse
like any other person.

I noticed that scrolling up and down in IE causes my computer to shut down
immediately. It doesn't gracefully shut down or tell me that it is
shutting
down or even give an error message. The computer just shuts completely of
as if I pulled the power cable out of the back of it.

After doing some trouble shooting I have yet to come up with a pattern
except that this problem only occurs in IE. It doesn't occur in Firefox
or
Windows Explorer.

Additionally, when scrolling in IE I can hear my CPU making a scratching
noise. At first I thought it was the hard drive reading vigorously as I
scrolled, but after opening the case and listening closely I realized it
is
coming from the CPU. Again, IE is the only thing that causes this to
occur.
Everything else works great. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas at
all?
Thanks
