Just recently I am plagued by a 'waiting for cache' message every time I move onto a new window or a new page in the same window.

I have emptied the cache, history, etc; turned everything off and back on; run the cleaner and antivirus; but it just keeps coming back. I have searched Google on the problem but there seems to be no answer to many questions on the subject.

Can someone advise please?

This may be a DNS issue, where your web page is trying to resolve the domain name before showing partly cached information.

The first thing I would try is restarting your router, in fact turn it off for a good 30 seconds.

If your on a WiFi connection, try moving closer to the router just for testing, and see if that improves things, as a poor signal or busy WiFi could give the same issues.

Iet us know how you get on.

Use Firefox instead of Google Chrome, cures 90% of all ailments including baldness.

Seriously though, this may be a sign that your hard drive is starting to fail. If you have any data, photos etc you want to keep, now is the time to do a back-up before its too late.

Do you log into google?

Is this on Windows 10?

Is this an HP computer?

I turned the router off for at least a minute and then left it to sort itself out for a couple of hours. Sadly, nothing has changed. I am constantly left hanging - say - an Ebay reminder, when it eventually appears the pictures will be missing for another wait. Reminds me of the old dial up!

I am hard wired to the router using Windows 10 with Google via Sky.

When I am not actually doing anything on the laptop it chunners away as if it is servicing the whole of New Brighton.

Not HP laptop, an Acer Aspire E15.

I will try Firefox again, have used it in the past but before this cache thing started happening.

Having turned everything off and now downloaded the latest version of Firefox things seem to have returned to normal. Thank you for your advice, always appreciated.
