well, go to friends with your CDs, see if the CDs work there, if they do,
your drive has said bye bye, you'll just have to buy a new one (probably

if you want something stable, and still run Windows, get NT 4 or Win2k...
most stable Windows releases I've seen... or if you want *real* stability,
get DOS (not the new patched versions made to be compatible with Win32, but
DOS 6), it's the MS OS I've had the least problems with... and if you've
been using computers since you were 6, you probably know how to use the
command-line too... to get even better stability, and something a bit more
up to date, get Linux, that's the good stuff...

hi, anyone know why OE suddently thinks that I'm not connected to the Inet
and stores all posts on my disk and wants me to press F5 before sending it??
this happens after I installed NIS (Norton Internet Security), but I've
configured it to give OE full access, I even disabled it and restarted OE
and it still is being stupid... OE is configured to send everything
immediately, so I don't get it (well, sort off, since MS products allways
are crap, maybe I'll try NS for a change...)
