I got my old pc out of the closet,,lol reformated it, putting it in my race trailer,,,the problem im having is,when i open IE , sometime the pages open good,,other times ,i get a page that has a bunch of words on the page,nothing else,,if i refresh it,,its good,,,any help would be great!!!
Could you describe the "bunch of words" a bit more clearly, or perhaps post a screenshot that depicts the problem for us?
Also- does this happen only on specific pages, or is it more of a random thing?

Um, yeah... looks great to me. What's the problem? :mrgreen:
That's really weird. Judging from first post I thought IE might just be displaying the underlying HTML source code of pages (instead of the proper graphical interpretation of that code), but that's not it- it looks like you've got some sort of character-encoding issue going on instead.
- Has this been happening ever since you reformatted/reinstalled, or did IE work correctly for a while before starting to do this?
- Have you tried to reinstall/repair IE yet?
Any info you can think of that might give us more clues would help.

it was doing it before i redid the Pc,i use a wireless network to get on line with this Pc,,ive used the repair option,,but it still does this,,when i first went to the wireless network,,it worked fine,,lol,,,then it went to the problem im having now,,so i reformated!! 
seem like it could be a problem in the network,,,now that i think about it,,any help would be great!
seem like it could be a problem in the network,,,now that i think about it,,any help would be great! Just to narrow things down:
1. Hook the PC up to a wired network (if you have an Ethernet NIC) and see if the problem still exists.
2. Download, install, and run a browser other than IE; see if the problem occurs with that browser (again- on a wired connection as well as a wireless if possible):
Netscape: http://channels.netscape.com/ns/browsers/default.jsp
Opera: http://www.opera.com/
FireFox: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/
