It's WinME. Trust me. I've installed programs like utilities, graphics, web stuff, etc, some of them crashed successfully. Norton IS does not even work well in this OS. Microsoft said they made some changes in core OS, may be that's what affects everything.

I installed Oracle PE both on Win98 and Win98SE, they worked flawlessly. So it must be ME. Beside I don't have anything on the background running (only systray, explorer), so it must something on the OS side. Received on Thu Jul 13 2000 - 00:00:00 CDT
