Thanks radnor... I tried that too - the option is checked... still nothing. :,
You have given me lots of great info here Iain. I am usually pretty savvy with these kinds of things, but this has me mystified. If it is something simple and staring me in the face - I am not seeing it. I do not see anything in my Registry Cleaner that could have done this. If it did, its not giving me an option to reverse it. I´ve gone through everything... I guess I´ll have to deal with the frozen little critters. No sense trying to resolve this at this point. A system restore back to the day I bought this PC using my restoration discs would certainly take care of it - but that would be unnecessary at this time. I do not see the ends justifying the means with doing that, unless I had another issue as well... and I do not. <br /> <br />Thanks very much for your help. I appreciate your time. Also - to the others here that have stopped by - thanks! <br /> <br /> ;)
You say you have a registry cleaner and optimizer. Check in that and see what adjustments it has. It may be that it has automatically shut the animation of as a means of speeding your computer up. Many of the apps that optimize your computer shut what they see as unnecessary functions off. Such as scrolling and font smoothing and combo box effects and shadows under menus,shadow under cursor and animations, flashing taskbar messages etc. Anything you have on your computer with that capability then check it and see what it has put for its settings Fred. :congrats π ;)
I have diskeeper 2007 too but not your issue.
I run Computer Associates Security Suite... I have diskeeper 2007, a degragmenter that runs in the background. I did run but never liked System Mechanic 6.0... I uninstalled it. I also use a registry cleaner and optimizer. My system runs flawlessly - with this exception... <br /> <br />I cannot recall at what point the animation stopped working... yes I know - that is NO help here... <br /> <br /> π I´ll whack them with the newspaper in the meantime... π <br /> <br />Thanks!!
Hey....have you loaded any optimizers recently? If so which ones?
Fred has rectal gnomes in his computer!........ya need to be very quiet Fred and sit perfectly still and stare at your screen. Under no circumstances must you blink or you will miss them. When you see one whack it hard with the newspaper!!!! π π π π :congrats π ;) .......if I think of anything serious I will let you know.......I am trying to find all the ways to disable animation on the computer so will let you know. :congrats
Oh, well. Sorry. It seems that your problem isn´t so simple as mine had been.
I can´t figure it out... I went where you said Iain - every option is checked there. I guess I´ll live with the suspended animation. π Something happened with my PC - I don´t know what changed this... everything else works fine - so I´ll live with it. Thanks for taking the time! :brb
Hi. I had the same problem when I installed XP on my new machine. My browser wouldn´t display the animation on the weather radar loops until animation got turned on. The IE XP default appears to be "animation off" in web pages. I went into Options-internet options-advanced tab. Scroll down to Multimedia and if the checkbox beside "Play animations in webpages" isn´t checked, then check it, and apply. I just now did this, turned animation off, then on again while viewing and reloading this page, and the little icons obeyed my commands. If you are using some other browser, then perhaps there is an equivalent setting somewhere in your browser. Hope this helps. :)
Ah...I´ll keep playing around here... see if I can find anything. Thank you for the valuable info!! I appreciate the time taken!! :)
Very true Jacob...some Photo editors and firewalls can change display functions......also check for viruses and tracking cookies as it seems a denial of service issue. :congrats π ;)
Or, try to think what you installed/deinstalled regarding to displaying. Maybe gif animations were linked to a certain program.
Looks like I´m SOL!! π π π
Yes , you are so right... its been like this for a long time however...I never thought much about it, as I dismissed it as a site issue. When I visited here using another PC, I realized its not the site. I can´t go back far enough to resolve this. :, <br /> <br />
Could always roll it back with System Restore to where it was working. :congrats π ;)
