I have just finished a fresh install of Win ME today along with a freash
install of Win98 SE last week .before that every thing worked fine. Until I
installed a new printer and had to format.
Now after 2 full days of reloading every thing as clean as possible I cant
get N4 to configure with the N4 configure program. I will get the BLUE
srceen and have to restart. If I do get passed the configure the N4 start up
screen is unreadable and scrambled? I have tried everything with no luck!
Its
the same thing with both installs

System
PIII 700
256 ram
Hercules 3D prophet II GTS Pro(7.56 referencedrivers)
SB Live
directX7
OS win ME

I had directx 8a on the last install with win98SE and thought that was the
problem .I'm totally ready to throw this computer out the window

Thanks for the help in advance

Well, I hate to tell you this but my personal experience with WindowsME is
that it generated more blue-screens than any other version of Windows, ever.

I finally had to give up on it.

Driver problems are far more severe than they are even with Windows 2000.

I actually like a lot about WinME, but it just didn't work out. Too many
issues, and there's also too much background junk going on to make game
playing smooth.

My hat's off to those that have managed to create a stable WinMe ***
environment. I'm sure it wasn't easy :)
