Want some good advice? Completely delete ME from your computer, go on ebay and buy
an OEM version of Windows XP (complete system, not the upgrade) and install it on
your system. It works better than the upgrade because it installs all the drivers
you need....the upgrade doesn't. ME is way too unstable of an OS which is why MS
reintroduced 98 after ME came out. XP is the bomb but you have to clear the crap
out of your system. I know.....this is exactly what I've been through over the last
8 months!!
