I'm sorry folks, I haven't been giving much feedback recently.
Thought that I was being smart, bought Windows XP Home Edition.
It took an age to install, everything went downhill after that.
My machine continuously crashed, my programmes wouldn't work properly and I was 'ready to kill dead things'!
In the end I took everything down to the bare bones, I'm now in the process of downloading all the levels.
Please bear with me, it's going to take a looooooong time to catch up.
Keep up the good work.
M.A.D.

No problem M.A.D.

I hope you get things straightened out soon. I know how frustrating computer problems can be. I myself don't like XP. Most of my programs run better with 98SE anyhow. That's why I chose to stay with it as long as I can. Before anyone tries to tell me the error of my ways, I already know the pros and cons and for me the cons far outweigh the pros for changing my OS. I'll stay with 98SE until something I like comes along. Preferably an OS that allows me to use DOS without a great deal of trouble and handles games as well. Anyway, I hope you get things ironed out quickly M.A.D.

Hi Maureen,
I really feel for you. I had similar problems when Windows 95 came out, I failed to learn my lesson & did the 98 upgrade myself... aargh!!!
After that, I was always got my friendly professional to do it

Thanks Sharon and Robbie,
I started with Win 95, did the upgrade myself to 98 and ME.
XP is a different ball game! I cannot understand the difficulty, it's supposed to be so easy to install and run.
Between us, my husband and I have added new processors, motherboards and hard drives, to mention a few.
Does anyone know of any patches needed to install XP?
I am determined to find out the problem with this, meantime I'll work with ME.
Thanks again for the support my friends.
M.A.D.

Why did I try XP Loof?
Because I heard it was good and was sick of ME.
All's well that ends well, I have a spanking new machine and it's
GREAT!
