Hi

Whats the best place to ask about windows 8.1 phone? My IE mobile keeps crashing the phone (soft restart) when I visit paltalk.com and press sign in. Have deleted temp files. Opera browser doesnt crash the phone but its beta.

Hey mate,

If your phone is crashing, it is likely just a bad phone. They are much simpler when compared to a computer, so there isn't too much room for user caused crashes, etc.

I would take your phone to the place you bought it from to see if they can suggest anything. Sometimes, they even come with a short limited warranty in such cases.

The phone has a 2 year warranty but I have all my stuff on it. I think this is WP8.1 related as other browsers dont crash the phone. Maxathon based on the IE engine crashes back to the apps menu when going to paltalk.com but Opera and UC browser display the page ok. The phone, Nokia Lumia 530 has the latest version of WP8.1 so maybe an update will cure it or a change in settings.
