IE9 RC Crashing - some compatability issues

Thanks for all the replies

I have just again tried ebay and still the same problem - as soon is i start to write crucial c300 in the search box it crashes and restarts - unless in compatability mode

I have tried a clean install of IE9, restore all setting inc advanced ones and run ie without addons but still getting the same

Will crawl the net so see what other sites do it

The fact that other people can access it seems to me that i have another issue...poss software conflict. Time to do some diggin. PS Below is the link to what i see when trying ebay

Hi
Where do I find the compatibility mode in ie9, I have looked through the tools menu but cannot find it.

Thank for help

you need to enable the command bar by right clicking somewhere between the tabs and home icon, click command bar, then go to tools and it should be there in the middle of the menu

My post above is just a generic reason why certain sites require compatibility mode. I was unable to try Ebay because I was at work. Besides, we're still on XP at work, and that is not compatible with IE9 (only works with upto IE8).

Now that I'm back home, I've just tried both Ebay.com and Ebay.co.uk with IE9RC 64-bit, and both sites opened without problems. What other sites are you having issues with?

I am having a problem with Gmail. Take a look at the pic. See the small font? Can't be fixed - at least in Rich Formatting mode.

Edit: But Gmail works (at least in so far as the font size problem is concerned) in Compatibility mode though the site does get a bit distorted.

This has really baffled me - i used IE9 x64 beta without any issues, but swithching to RC causes so many websites to crash. It crashes without any addons, removed flash and silverlight, no joy, yet it works perfectly in Safe Mode so im thinking maybe its a driver issue

If so, the only driver i think it could be is the GPU (I have nvidia GT 435M) - does anyone know much about IE GPU rendering and if it can cause issues??

All help much appreciated

Nope no good - still same issue. Looks like its back to IE8 and to do some uninstalling till i find culprit...... bugger

Hi everyone,
I was having the same problems with IE9 RC. Seemed much flakier than the beta, frequent error pages, especially with gmail, ebay, yahoo stock ticker - but many others.
I've fixed mine now and have a stable IE9 RC. Hasn't crashed since the fix. The fix is weird though and I can't see the causal relationship...
I had overclocked my PC. Not by much (it's intel 6600 quad core - I OC'd from 2.4GHz to 2.71GHz). Had no problems with it at all, all apps working fine, no blue screens, temperatures all OK etc etc. However, since I've downclocked back to 2.4GHz the IE9 RC crash problem has completely vanished.
Now...if the overclocking was a problem - surely I'd have problems with all apps, not just IE? FireFox 3.6 worked fine, as did the IE9 betas. However, I haven't changed anything else on my PC so...?
