I have a question. i got this new computer but one thing is the games i use to could blow away like petpet sitters and freaky factory go so fast now i can't score nothing hardly. is there any way to correct this?
and also....use to if i typed in like searches for example like if i were looking up lindseyacrons profile the next time i would go to look her up i could type in two letters and it pop up as an option to click to finish for me. or if i looked for items alot they would like store so many prethought out words...example if i bought a lot of bottled air faeries or bottled faeries in general...if i typed in bot.....then all the types of bottled faeries would show up under the box and i could just click on the one i was again looking for? this computer doesn't do that and i was wondering how i can get it to work on this computer? any help out there on these two things?

You got Windows XP, right? You're probably used to the games being a little slower on your old computer because on Windows XP I think they're a little faster/how they're actually supposed to be. Unless yours is unusually fast?
For the second thing..I know what you're talking about - the thing that can automatically finish what you type if you've ever typed that word in the past. I never used to have that and I wondered why, but then, the first time I used Internet Explorer, the first thing I tried to type it popped up with a box that had like a checkbox if you wanted to use the prethought word thing and I checked the box. So now every time I type something it knows I've already typed, it'll show a list of options. On your desktop click the internet explorer icon and when you go to type somthing for the first time that box might pop up and you just check the box. I don't know if it'll do that on your computer but I'm hoping it will.

I'm not completely sure but I think enabling auto complete would solve your second question about getting the computer to finish common words, etc. I use IE, so to turn on auto complete go under Tools, then Internet Options. Then click on the Content tab. You should see about half was down a button labeled Autocomplete. Then just put a check next to what you would like it to complete for you. I hope this is making sense,lol. If not I'm sure someone who is more computer savvy than I am can help.

Hahaha, me and fairy couldn't think of the name of that and we're saying 'prethought word thing' and stuff. Auto complete...of course. I think what TNgirl said might work.

Yes, that should work.
As far as the speed of the games, I think you're pretty much stuck with that. My computer is way faster than Art's, so games that he can score high on, I can't, and vice versa. Maybe there is a setting somewhere to slow it down, but I don't know what that would be. You may have to switch the games that you play most of the time to find one that you can score higher at the faster speeds.

Hasee Bounce is better at high speeds too, and so is Web of Vernax..you might try those.
