Problems with IE8 "not responding" on windows 7

I have a Toshiba Satellite L-355 that has been upgraded to run Windows 7 Home Premium from Windows Vista. I've been having problems with IE8 "not responding" and have tried running it without add-ons, system restore, and banging my head against the wall. All to no avail. Does anybody have any ideas how to fix this? I've tried running other browsers with the same problems.

Intel(R) HM55 Express Chipset LPC Interface Controller
Thanks, sav! That's perfect. (Good to know it shows up in Device Manager for people, too.)
Okay ... although it's the Intel P55 and PM55 chipsets which get all the press about cranky Touch/iPhone connections on Windows 7 systems (the 0xE0000065, -6999 and "Disk can not be read or written to" error messages are the most common, although symptoms can vary further than that), similar sorts of issues look like they could strike other Intel 5-series chipsets ... including your HM55.
So I'm proceeding precisely as I would with someone with a PM55 chipset.
*1) Dell updates*
Some folks with 5-series chipset trouble have got past it by way of BIOS updates. So I thinks it's worth your heading to your Downloads page at Dell, and checking to see if there's any newer versions of your BIOS lurking there. Unfortunately, with the Studio 15s I'm never precisely sure which is the correct downloads page ... so I'd try going to the following Dell page:
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx
... enter your service tag, and then drill through to your downloads page.
Any improvement with your syncing performance after applying any available BIOS updates at Dell?
*(2) Adjust power management setting on USB controllers*
If no joy after updating (if you were behind on your BIOS version), try applying the measures from the following document:
[iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB|iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB]
Reboot the PC after making the changes, and then try another sync. Any improvement?
(If either set of measures improves your sync performance, please post back to let us know which one helped for you.)

I am getting problems with Firefox not responding and it takes several tries to get to where I want. What causes this?

When I log onto the internet I am now using Google as my home page but my problem still exists. When I go to get a new site I get a message that Firefox is not responding. Then it clears up and I click on something else and it does the same thing. I have even done a complete virus and malware check on my computer. What can I do to correct this?

Please read this thread:

I have upgraded twice to FF 4.0 and both times I have had major problems with it not responding and loading pages very slowly.

I have once again gone back to the older 3.6 version. I love the layout of the new 4.0, but I hate all the lagtime and the fact that it stops responding every few minutes. Will this be addressed? I would much rather have the latest version, but the lags are annoying.

I have also updated to the newest version and enjoyed the new look and layout how ever I have experienced confusing issues. For a few months 4.0 ran without a hitch no problem in sight then all of a sudden each time I loaded any link I would experience no indication of it working. Loading up task manager it was running at least twice at demanding memory usage was also high. The cpu usage was just as it always was which was below 5% even with other programs running. It constantly shows that the browser is "(not responsive)"

I updated to Firefox 5 and now have problems with it not responding ALOT and also even though I have certian sites listed to allow popups they dont work on several sites I use daily. What can I do about this?

I dont know what else to say about it. I updated and now all this is happening and it didnt before my update to Firefox5. I have several site I use daily and I have gone in and marked them to allow popups and they just dont work. The sites are My Yearbook...Kia Financeing...and a few more. And also I am finding that I get a no response a lot!

I am sorry you are not in a position to replace the iPad. It is stating the obvious, but nothing lasts forever - especially something like an original iPad. IMHO, there is nothing you can do to address the issues you have posted about.

HT5312 So I have a problem with iTunes not letting me download anything without first responding to some security questions which I don't remember setting up, how can fix it? Oh, and it won't let me reset the questions either!

So I have a problem with iTunes not letting me download anything without first responding to some security questions which I don't remember setting up, how can fix it? Oh, and it won't let me reset the questions either!

If you mean that you aren't getting the reset link, then from the page that you posted from :
Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so.
You can contact iTunes Support in your country via this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

Wifi issues with iphone not responding

Phone: iPhone 4s.
This issue started approximately two weeks ago. My phone initially started with the Wifi connection greyed out, I followed the appropriate steps to resolve this issue, and was successful. Now I can turn the wifi connection on without problems, but my iPhone will freeze (delay), then return me to my homescreen. Occasionally I do automatically connect to my known wifi, but then will disconnect and return to 3G. If I make an attempt to go to settings to manually reconnect, the phone again freezes. The phone seems to freeze after I click settings, then when pressing Wi-Fi, the bar turns dark bold, but freezes and doesn't open. I then have to click my home button, return to the main menu. Also if I open an app during the seldom opportunity my phone is connected to wifi, the phone will disconnect, return to 3G and freeze. I have rebooted my routers, forgot networks, reset network settings. I have thought about resetting the entire phone, but my phone will not stay connected to wifi long enough for me to back up my data to iCloud. I am thinking of stopping into my local verizon store, but I think they will redirect me to an apple store; which is 35 miles away. Of course the problem with me not connecting to Wi-Fi is my increased use of data. Now I am over 75% for my monthly usage with 2 weeks remaining, and do not see justification in possibly having to pay the overage fee. Many times when my phone freezes due to these wifi issues, or will not respond, I have to do the manual power/home reset. In conclusion, I need to figure out how to maintain my connection to Wi-fi, and stop my phone from not responding when I open my wifi settings. Thanks in advance!

My Iphone 4S is doing the same thing.. All of a sudden the WIFI button is gray and not working. I chatted online with a Rep. He had me call *228 and hit option 1, then call again and hit option 2. All of a sudden the WIFI button was black. But it could not find any network. I shut it off and restarted it and now button gray again. I called that number again and still gray. I read somewhere else that a lot of people have a problem with the WIFI button. They say it basically just stops working. This was a replacement phone because the volume stopped working on my original phone. I assume they gave me a refurbished one because it didn't seem new. I'm due an upgrade in 3 months. I'm disabled and just hate driving to the store again. I wish there was an easier way.

When I plug in my ipod to my laptop instead of my desktop, nothing pops up to sync my ipod. Has anyone had a problem with itunes not recognizing an ipod?

If neither your iPod or iPhone are being recognized by iTunes when connected, I would recommend the steps in the following article.

Adobe Reader Does Not Respond in Windows 8

I need to do a simple edit of a pdf. I've been editing pdfs using nothing but the free Adobe reader for years. Now I got a new laptop - 64 bit Windows 8 and I installed the current reader. I need the Adobe reader for other programs I work with. I have noticed that the adobe reader is slow to open and constantly says "not responding." I also cannot get it to respond so that I can fill in a form (i.e., a basic edit), which I could always do. Please tell me how to fix this!

I figured it out! I have Adobe Reader XI on my desktop. I opened it up. I went to Edit/Preferences/Security (Enhanced) and disabled the "Protected Mode at startup." My Adobe pdfs now respond and I can edit them without issue.

Also messages does the same thing

Hello BassoonPlayer,
Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using. FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in. This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly. By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you. Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

Problem with tv@nywhere plus on windows 8

hi
i have a problem with tv@anywhere plus on windows 8. i can setup the pvr plus app completely but when i open that and click on "watch and record dtv program" icon, i will see an error that says: "invalid class string!"
i think this problem should be for its driver because i'm using windows 8 64bit and the driver is for windows 7, i couldn't find an appropriate driver for windows 8 on MSI driver downloads, as matter of fact it didn't exist.
so what should i do for my problem?

I'm afraid TV@nywhere Plus is a bit outdated for Win8. There is no update so far since 2010. Could be MSI won't add Win8 support if it would be anyway possible.

We have version 10.5.8 photoshop CS3 for Mac. How do we fix a problem with photoshop not resizing dpi? For example we resized a 72 dpi image to 200 dpi, when we do a pdf analysis it read as 344 dpi.

Sounds like it's a problem with the Acrobat settings. Did you set them to the same resolution?

RFIDITVCL : problem with variation notes

Hi Experts,
I have implemented the sapnote 1639418 "RFIDITVCL: 3000 Euro Communication additional changes", but I have a problem with variation notes related to specific invoices in same year...the user guide in the note says that they are clubbed together and the total is compared with the limit...I think that the report doesn't function in this case (my case is higher 25000u20AC) and so my documents aren't in the list....
Do you have the same problem??
Thank you
Best regards
Angela

Dear Angela,
I have the same problem. The program looks at field BSEG-REBZG.
However this field is empty in our case.
We create our debit and credit memo's with reference to the original sales order.
Who knows a solution?
