Dear Chris, In December 2000 I purchased a Umax Astra 2100U [USB] scanner to use with a Windows ME-Intel 82810 motherboard computer. After experiencing some problems and going through Umax Tech. Support I was told that the software did NOT support Windows ME. The Umax drivers are supposed...

I made a bonehead rookie mistake and deleted a Windows ME file named "Winzip32.exe". I need this file to unlock a zipped patch I downloaded from Sun Micro Systems. I'm unable to locate this file on my OEM CD's by either browsing the CD's or by "Start>Search>Winzip32.exe>Drive...

Did you try deleting your temporary internet files, the browser history, and all the cookies and applettes that accumulate in the background ? This has helped me in the past. The solutions offered by those above have also worked for me when my machine bogs down. Good Luck!

I had a bunch of problem with Windows ME and McAfee VScan, too. It was so bad I finally uninstalled VScan for about six weeks [during the same time you made this post]. After six weeks my (new) WinME system was running pretty smooth, so I decided to give McAfee another try. Reinstalled...

Dear Windows ME User, You should have an icon in your Windows ME start menu that will take you straight to the Windows Update Website if you're online when select it. Try: Start>Windows Update after connecting to your ISP, then pick "Product Updates" at the website. This automatic...

[Two of the BEST have already responded above.] ShaithisDanoveur is right - INUNDATE Windows ME with RAM and everything seems to work better. SDRAM is getting inexpensive, it's also easy to install yourself. I run 256MB, but I'd like to try more (anybody want two PC 100 128MB DIMMS, cheap).

I agree with ShaithisDanoveur, upgrade your RAM. I've got a 600MHz Celeron that came with 32MB of SDRAM. I installed virus scan software and then my machine CRAWLED. I upgraded to 256MB SDRAM and it really boosted performance. SDRAM is getting to be inexpensive. It's probably one of the...

Thanks to all who tried to help. I contacted several software vendors, they ALL indicated that the USB interface created technical problems which made their software inapprpriate for my desired use. When BUSlink comes out with an IEEE-1394 [iLink/Firewire] interfaced unit I'll get one...

My Windows ME System Restore also loses it's memory at various unexpected times. I've also noted that when we change over to a new month I can't go back to the previous month to access stored Restore Points. I've got the Memory alotment for System Restore set at the maximum [1170MB] so I don't...

Dear mhughes, [Thanks for babysitting us rookies.] I've got an OEM Windows ME Restore CD; my situation is parallel to brandi****, who you also helped. I tryed to follow your suggestion to her, but was unable to browse or find a "Windows ME" or "Add Ons" folder on the...

Dear mhughes, Thanks for a for great tip !!! I've got a BUSlink L30 USB External Hard Drive where the included software has been giving me fits. I've got an OEM Windows ME Disk just like the above user (my experience is almost exactly parallel with his). BUSlink says MS Backup will work...

Question: What is the best available program to make the most complete copy of internal hard drive data onto external USB hard drive (data to include peripheral device drivers and as much of Windows ME O.S. as is possible) ? System: Windows ME OEM Op. System, 600Mhz Celeron CPU, 256MB SDRAM...
