I know this won't interest most of you'uns but I thought it was kinda comical.

I have a computer in my shop where I do my drafting.

have a couple of games, calendar, my drafting program, various other small programs.

just for the heck of it I started cleaning the c drive of un-needed files.

deleted over 500 reg files and deleted help files, stuff like that.

got my complete c drive down to 385 Mb and still running with no problems.

I could have done more but I got tired of deleting.

see... I knew you wouldn't be interested.

have a good day.

Well, WinMe never ran correctly with all the required files.

So maybe the key is to delete most of it. :lol:

now I do realize that most people( 99%) don't like winme....well I am wondering what could be wrong? I have reinstalled winme twice in the last 5 1/2 years. once because I wanted to....once last month when my hard drive bit the dust.

I often wonder why bill just didn't improve a little on winders 3.1

I see the new windows is still in the works but my machine will never handle it.

windows vista would laugh out loud at 128 meg ram.

Like XP - sad that I ran it with 128 for a year or two (until we installed McAffe!)

I guess it's up to each person to decide what he or she needs for the computer...some people need a lot and some just need the basics...

this is some stats on my main computer:

my games folder only has 10 files at a whopping 736 kb.

my music folder is empty as I have it all on cd.

my picture folder has 1.54 Mb...all my pics are on cd

my windows folder is 635 Mb

total: 1.39 Gb

hi bear skin

they said that about winxp

that we needed at least 256mg of ram

and at least 10gig hdd

to make it operate

well i used 128 0n xppro for several years

and 4gig hdd

and it worked great

when i was at techtv

there was alot of negative posts

about winme

so at the time i tried it

it didnt give me any trouble

but i had my heart set on xp

so once i got xp

ive used it since

at first my xp copy was an elegal disk

and the responses from the message board

scared the s---t out of me

so i went and bought a legal copy

and i have to admit

there is no difference from the legal copy to the illegal one

apart from the updates

but i got round that

tho it stopped me from looking over my shoulder

ive just come from a NZ

message board

and it seems there are still a lot of users

with win 98 and win me

so i say go for it bearskin

ive followed your posts

and you seem to use winme successfully
