A while ago, we bought a second HD and along with it came Windows XP. Which resulted in Windows ME getting our C Drive, with 40gig, and XP being installed on our D, with 80gig. This way, half the family continued to use ME, while the other half prefered XP.
But after another Windows Update, ME suddenly became unusable.. The screen went back to 640*480/256 colors, and the mouse drivers became inoperable. So, I re-installed ME, but with no effect at all.
Now, since we use the Evaluation copy of XP, and have only 7 days left( ), its important to fix this problem on short notice...
Any suggestions?
XP won't willingly coexist with an earlier version of windows, fortunately there is a fix. http://www.dougknox.com/xp/tips/xp_repair_9x.htm
