Boy o boy, Win ME what a bitch, 2 days to get it running,correctly, new
modem as well, would not run the old modem past 31500bps used to run all day
at 46000bps
Might just be getting some where at last, microsoft wheel works at least.
Good luck guys
My philosophy.... never upgrade always perform a clean (Windows) install. I
had no problem with Windows ME and it installed better than any previous
version of Windows. Not as well as BeOS or QNX though.

Lol!

No probs here with a clean install, except my internal pci modem wouldn't
work at all. A USB modem soon fixed that.

My internal modem would not work, I get port open etc.
Tried 3 different modems, no good with any.
The internal went from connection speed of 46000bps on 98se to 31500bps on
ME. On a fresh install would not work at all. Seems strange!!
The system is running ok now with a fresh install. but the modem will not
work, runs ok on my other pc with 98se.
Video drivers were a problem as well. but I may have that under control.

Same here. It took me 3 days to get running after going from 3.1 to
W95, a day from W95 to W98, but ME worked fine the first time after a
45-minute installation. It did overwrite a few things, but nothing
which actually affected the running of the OS and it's remarkably more
stable than W98.
