[bites tongue on M.E. being crappy]


What do you mean by you can't see the "whole screen"? How much of it can you actually see? Does it matter what resolution you set it at?

Hey I like ME on an older computer, I'm running it on 2 of mine

can you move the screen using the arrows on the keyboard? or maybe with the mouse moving it to the side and continue moving it,and then the screen moves? I have seen that happen.Or maybe hit the Tab key.

Guessing rreally

I cant move the screen with arrows hitting tab or messing with the monitor itself, also i cant change the resolution because its some windows setup thing. its like part of the screen is chooped off. like when you view a high res webpage on a low resolution monitor, you have to scroll over to see the whole thing. its like that but i cant scroll over.

Maybe get rid of that pos OS u r using...lol oops...I don't know what it could be..that's really wierd...never had that happen to me on any of my computers...but my computers also run on Win98, 2000, and XP...I don't use those "other" ones. GL to you man... I will try to find some info out for u.

Does registration give you the option of register later?? If it does register after your install is complete.

Override1313:

Are you certain you have the correct drivers for your graphics/video card? I'd try changing and/or updating those drivers.

it could be that ME is inadvertently loading incorrect drivers. Have you successfully run that OS with that hardware configuration?

Another thought . . .:

IF that computer is an HP ... then perhaps this is the way it retains its "proprietary" status. Know what I mean? Did this particular computer come with "startup disks" with a Windoze program on those disks?
