-5 virus'/worms were eliminated, that helped a bit.
-reinstalled windows M.E., got internet explorer and e-mail back

i STILL get non stop errors when i start the computer but thats the ONLY issue i have left, and the computer freezes once in a while.

what kinda errors? esp with winme, u gota be acreful about driver inst.

take out all your peripherals except the vid card and disable all onboard devices. then install one piece of hardware at a time, install the latest drivers, and restart twice after each driver install. then move onto the next thing. its a pita but its the only way to get things to work.

i even do that on winxp. the thing is that driver installations always leave something to be installed after a restart, so if u do more than 1 at a time, it sometimes Fs shit up.

Run 98 SE... less flaky and runs faster. Or get with the times and install XP
