Hey everyone. Once again more issues with my m17x r1.
Issue number one: internet explorer is extremely slow. I'm not talking about my internet connection. Its the actualy program. It responds very slow, starts up slowly and when i create a new tab it takes about 30 seconds before i can use the other tab. I'm not sure what is causin this but when i use inprivate browsing everything works a lot faster. I haven't tried any other browsers yet. I personally like IE. any suggestions?
issue number two: i downloaded blacklight tango down from games for windows live and installed it. but when i select play the game doesnt start up. instead i get an error message that says "The program can't start because D3DCompiler_41.dll is missing from your computer" Any idea what i can do to fix this issue as well?
thanks everyone in advance for your input.

I'm not sure why Internet Explorer is responding slowly like that. You might want to double check you have the latest version and have fully updated your computer using Windows Update. Also, make sure your computer doesn't have any viruses. Also, sometimes add-ons such as toolbars (from Yahoo, Xfire, etc.) can slow down the browser too. You might want to try removing them if you have them installed.
As for the D3DCompiler_41.dll, it sounds like you need to upgrade your version of Direct X. Do a google search and you should find it on the official Microsoft website.
Hope that helps. -
