HEY I need urgent help. I am running Windows Millenium edition, with 256 mb ram, and a 1000mhz processor.
Everytime i use internet explorer, it freezes. it took me 6 restarts and 8 trys to get this far with it. things like msn and norton anti-virus updates still work, its just internet explorer itself. i tried re-installing windows and it didn't help much. help would be appreciated
thanks

when you re-install windows, it is better to re-format the harddisk as well. (copy out your important files first.)

As you're having problems with Windows Malignant Edition . . . my advice is quite blunt . . .


Back up all the most important data you wish to keep, on to CD-R or to another HDD.

Go to a computer retail store and buy a copy of Windows XP or Windows 2000.

Completely re-format the Windows partition on your PC's hard drive.

Install your newly purchased version of Windows XP or 2000.

Get all the latest updates, patches and service packs.

Then, disable IE, and get Mozilla instead!


As your PC has a 1GHz CPU with 256MB RAM, It should easily accomodate Windows XP.

Better still (if you can afford it) ditch your PC altogether and get yourself a Mac instead!
