Ok,here is what I have done.I have the files of a WinME disk in a temp folder and 
started setup and got this error:
Setup encountered a problem while checking the integrity of your registry.If your 
registry is corrupted,WinME may not run properly.

So I continued on and now I am at this message:

Setup can save your Windows system files,so you can uninstall WinME and return to 
your previous version of Windows.This mat require up to 125-175 mb of disk space 
depending on your system configuration.
Do you want setup t save your existing files?  Y/N

And that is where I am going to leave it for now.I don't want to mess anything up 
after making it this far.Okie,thanks Jack

It does take some experience to recover from such a mess (I have recovered systems
