    Install a different OS. Any different OS. It doesn't matter. Windows ME is the worst OS MS or anyone else has ever made in the history of mankind.

    Why is Me so bad? Isn't it just an update to Win98?

    I think I want to do something else too, what do I need to watch TV on my computer monitor? I have an LCD screen without the built-in...cable input thing, and I have a GeForce 3. What else do I need to buy/install?

    As always, any help for this obviously ignorant person is very appreciated.
    Let me think of something witty...

    If Win98 was a car, upgrading to ME would be like pouring cement in your gas tank. And maybe adding a spoiler, so it looks faster, but only attaching it with one bolt.

    not read every post but got some simple advice.

    stay away from wireless connections they are fine for doing stuff like looking up web pages ect but if you play games online the wireless connection will suck cant remember exact details but the speed at which the wireless conenction transmits data isnt as good as good old cat5 cable plus the wireless connection suffers from a delay in sending and receiving information.

    cat 5 cable is much better for playing online games

    WiFi 802.11b = 11 Mbps.


    As for your last question, you need a tuner card to receive TV on your computer, and a coax cable to go from your cable plug (if you have cable) or antenna to the plug on the card. You might also have to buy a cable to plug from that card to your sound card if it isn't provided with the tuner card.

    And then there is Death
