I have no delay with browser or screensets. I have no floppy controller on my motherboard (ASUS P6T SE).

Out of thread : what version of NVidia drivers do you use please ? I installed few months ago the 260.99 (I'm not sure) and it killed my system (I had to go in safe Windows mode and installed old drivers I kept).

Does the 265.58 is ok for you ?


What exactly did the NVidia drivers do to your system? I had to change mine recently

Ok, I think I found.

In fact, in Sonar 8.5, I have this lag only when I go to Options -> Audio menu and click OK. It's about the same time (5s) in X1 or 8.5.3 excepted the 1st time I click OK in X1 (8s).

So the only thing to explain why some of you have not this lag is related to your soundcard and its drivers I think.

Unified Preferences but unified lag for me...

The 260.99 killed my system after the 1st reboot : it stays at the "Welcome" screen for a while and I can't access my desktop.

The 265.88 works fine.

Wow!! I had a situation where one of my 2 monitors would take long periods of time before it would give me my desktop, the time got longer and longer until it wouldn't give me the desktop at all, at first I thought it was a Windows update problem but when the problem actually destroyed one of my monitors I decided to replace the video card and the drivers. problem solved.

I has "destroyed" your monitor ? How can it be possible ?

For my subject :

I tried on a laptop with integrated sound card : it's instantaneous.

So it depends of what soundcard you use.

It is very well possible to damage an older CRT (cathode Ray Tube). In fact - I have seen damaged CRT's myself. If the refresh rate stays out of range for a long time it is possible to damage the HSP unit in such a way it has to replaced. It tries to keep up with the high refresh rate, but it is not designed to to do that. So at the end something breaks down (in most cases the driver transistor, but that varies). This even happened with some expensive monitors you should expect to be protected. Later makings of CRT monitors had shutdown protection for this problem, but this protection was left out in the more cheaper brands.

This problem does not occur with the non-CRT monitors. They simply give a "out of range" message.

Oups yes, I totally forgot our old CRT screens.
