Hi, I'm using Windows ME and becaus my (pentium4 1,5Gbyte 256Mbyte RAM) pc was freezing up every few days, I've set my hardware accelleration on low. But now the problem is even wors.
Now he freezes already after a few hours. And it seem I'm not able to put the hardware accelleration back on full. Every time I start up I get a diologue box telling me I'm using the option: selective to solve problems with the system. Eventhoug I've reset it back to full.

(Thanx for reading my bad Englisch)

Hi Peterm, thanks for your help!
Sorry for my late reply (but I wan't expecting an answer anymore)

I looked in my bios and the onelything I could find on resetting to default was 'Load optimized defaults'. I'm not familliar with bios settings and would like to know if this is the wright setting you were talking about before I make any changes.

Thanks, Fabien

Hi Fab4
Yes that is the one.
No promises but it is about our only chance. Unless you have the windows me cd and we try a paralell install.
Cheers

thanks anyway

Hi Fab4
Can you give me make and model of the computer, Is this using an onboard video card or an [bleep] on video card?
If it is an add on card - make and model please.
Do you have the ME cd ?
Cheers
Peterm
