Run Internet Explorer Without Add-Ons

Call 1-855-903-2367

• To do so, open the Start menu and launch the All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer (No Add-Ons) shortcut.

Use Software Rendering

• Like other browsers, Internet Explorer 9 and later versions use your computer’s graphics hardware to accelerate web page rendering.

• This can occasionally cause problems with some graphics hardware and graphics drivers.

Call 1-855-903-2367

Call 1-855-903-2367

• Click the Advanced tab and enable the “Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering” option under Accelerated graphics. You will need to restart IE after changing this setting.

Call 1-855-903-2367

Call 1-855-903-2367

• If crashes continue to occur after activating software rendering, you should probably disable this option. Assuming it works properly – and it does on the vast majority of computers — GPU rendering helps speed things up.

Scan for Malware

• Malware can cause many types of applications to crash, especially web browsers like Internet Explorer.

Call 1-855-903-2367

• If your browser is crashing frequently, be sure to scan your computer with antivirus software like Microsoft Security Essentials. You may also want to get a second opinion from another antivirus program if you already have antivirus software installed.Call 1-855-903-
