Re: DRWMX2004, runs very slow with many "screen fl

I have had screen flashing problems for quite a while, but they got much worse
yesterday. I thought it was because I had been working with a template and
there was something crazy with that. I was getting javascript errors as well
when making changes to the template and when updating pages based on the
template (not always, but frequently).

I had installed the Sun JRE 1.4.2.04 yesterday so this morning i removed that,
I am still having the flashing problem, sometimes when doing other things even,
just if DW is running at all. I have McAfee AV, I have disabled read on-access
scanning in the folders where I keep my DW projects, didn't make much
difference.

I have DWMX04 (about box says 7.01), WinXP sp1 with all critical updates
applied, I have a Dell Precision 340 with P4 2.2Ghz, 768MB RAM, nVidia Quadro2
MXR/EX with 32MB RAM. I am running this at 1600x1200 32bit color if that makes
any difference. I've been running at that resolution for quite a while with no
noticable change in anything from previous 1280x1024 resolution.

Sometimes simply clicking on the DW interface will stop the flashing,
sometimes not. It is very frustrating. Yesterday while I was trying to update
one site it kept wanting to open a different site (why would that be?) and it
would flash rapidly for several seconds. It also gets extremely slow at times,
it seems to think it needs to check the links in the cache every time I do
anything. This is bad because this is a large site with thousands of links for
it to check.
