[QUOTE="darbaugh, post: 987460, member: 124357"] thanks to both of you for your replies. i am positive it is just not firefox that is doing it. it does it for any applications that require the window to be resized (not sure how to put it). for example, i just opened up onyx, and clicking from one section to the other takes several seconds as the windows slides up and down when moving from section to section (ie. going from verify tab to cleaning tab). when i used text edit, when the window slid down to ask me if i wanted to save, that was slow; it closed right away after i discarded it. it's like slow motion, sort of like minimizing while holding the shift key. it's not choppy or anything, just slow. by eye candy i just meant stuff in system preferences, for example no genie effect. i've never used the terminal for anything along those lines. thank you for the new account troubleshooting idea. i made a new login and fiddled around with some applications. they ran at the normal speeds, no slow motion type stuff. so i guess that means something is screwy with my settings. i just have no idea as to what it could be. i can try and take a video so you can see what i'm talking about if you think it could help. i really appreciate the feedback. -da [/QUOTE]
