Sandra reserves the right to shout at all of us BB.    Just take it like a man OK?  

[Big_Boss]

*sniff* *sniff* ok  

[Sandra]

Sorry for thinking youd misunderstood BB  :-[

I see what you mean now thanks to Simon.The strange thing is I can get mine like yours but if I close the window and then reopen it,it goes back to how mine was.The other way I can revert back to the same as mine is if I change it to yours then just use the back button

It makes me glad I stayed with Millenium when I listen to all the problems with XP

[Simon]

They're not problems, Lona - they're extra features!

Simon  

You have such a way with words....... I like that lol.

  M.E.?? Quick get rid of it.... possibly the worst O/S since 95a LOL

Is it possible that problem stems from a non administrator account? HAven't looked into it at all - I just like guessing  

[Lona]

I liked win95 . Thought it was better than 98 . I also have no problems with millenium. What's so bad about it? And what am I missing out on by not having XP?

[TR]

XP is the DBs Lona  , once you get used to the new visuals and Icons etc.. its like driving down the road for the 1st time .. once youve been down it and second time you remember also its more fun finding out  

And its more stable than 98 and ME because its built round win 2000 Technology.. havn't had 1 blue screen of death since running XP.

Hookstar

mind you thats my humble opinion  

[Lona]

I'll take your word for it Hookstar, but I will put it another way, my hubby drives a BMW but I still prefer my wee Corsa

[TR]

Yep spose your right Lona .. we all get from a-b but at what speed and comfort we are willing to accept  

[Lona]

To really tell the truth, Hookstar, I am chicken to go mucking about with the operating system, as I am an numpty when it comes to techie things. :-[

BMW = XP
Corsa = 98SE
Dodgey Cut & Shut 1985 Model Skoda with failed MOT = M.E.  

M.E. was microsofts attempt on making more money from the Windows 2000 (business O/S) launch. They didn't spend much time on it, and not a lot of manufacturers actually supported it fully.

Of course, if it aint broke .......   but if you ever start getting problems, well you know where I'm going. Not everyone has the problems, but maybe about 60% of M.E. users do.


-EDIT-
(IF ya get a BSOD in XP, its a hardware problem. Or a wrong/faulty driver. the o/s itself should not BSOD like ME does...!!)
