I notice you said Windows ME so I'll give you the fix I think will work.

Spend 180 bucks for the WinXP upgrade or find someone who can give you a copy.

Actually I planned to do that. But as you know Neost, my computer crashed and I had to go out and spend just about that much to get it fixed, so I have to wait. Any other input?

Here at my office we are fairly cutting edge and usually upgrade things pretty quick when they are available. Windows ME killed that for us. We upgrade a few dozen machines with it last year and nothing but problems. It was the biggest sack of shit that I had ever seen from Microsoft. Windows 3.1 was better.

Now I tell people that if they are using Windows ME to not even ask for help. I want nothing to do with the crap. Find a good warez site and steal xp or windows 2k. Serves Microsoft right for fucking thousands with ME.
