Well, it seems this computer could not wait. So many crashes that I tried to do a format but after 4 try?s I have yet to get it to work. When I first tried to format the only paper in the box about it said type FORMAT C: \U or soming like that but I cannot find the paper right now. Anyway I get a error message almost from the start saying this drive has a partion on it that is os2 or nt and some programs will not run do I wish to continue. When I do it gets through up to loading the cab files in xp and locks up. When I shut down the os does not work anymore. If I stop before sp2 then my programs do not work correctly and shut down. I can use it but am looking at getting a newer one soon. The only thing that works is email and surfing the net. I saw that deal Jo Ann, I?m going back to your email and check it out maybe get it but I sure hope it comes with a cpu. God Bless and will be catching up on replies soon Becky --------------------------------- Never miss an email again! Yahoo! Toolbar alerts you the instant new Mail arrives.
