What does scroll lock do?

Anyone?

Cos I have no idea, and what is with loud PCs, are there any programs that I can run that will reduce the performance of my PC temporarily but reduce the noise also.

I don't mind the noise if I'm play a game cos I put the voulme up but when I'm trying to write a letter the noise just p*sses me off beyond all belief.

pretty obvious i must say.

go to a word document. type some stuff and then scroll lock it. when you scroll, the cursor gets stuck on that page. bascially things seem a bit stuck up.
