ARGGGHHHH. I hate Windows ME. Every time I turn it on, I get some stupid run time error and it goes ARGGHHH.

I hate Microsoft. I hate Microsoft. I love Xbox.

Oh well. We should ban Windows ME. Don't ban me, it was only a witty pun in the title :D.

Millenium Edition????

*Shudders*

People still use that junk?
Upgrade, downgrade, doesn't matter which just pick one and quickly. Nasty, nasty, evil little nimrod of an operating system is WinME.

There are many problems with ME, but it is one of the best operating systems for drivers. 2000, NT and XP all have problems with unnoficial or unapproved hardware drivers, but ME does not have this problem.

The reason that Disk Defrag keeps restarting is because there are programs running in the background (often trojans/spyware) that haven't been shut down.
Also, the most stable version of windows to date, 2000, is hardly compatible with any new software. Because XP is built around the 2000 framework, there are also some issues with installing some software from the mid to late 90s.

I have ME, and find it quite acceptable.
