Re: No CD Letter
Thanks for answer - could'nt find info you asked for ( I'm a novice ), so I formatted and installed windows 2000 instead of ME. After some small issues, I managed to get it all working.
Thanks for taking time to help.

Re: No CD Letter
...... and, in the process, you've learned a valuable lesson - Windows 2000 is great, Windows ME is not !
Good move Brian
