any suggestions?
i can't re-install windows for a few weeks, until my software arrives in the mail.
(i left it home, like a moron!)
and also, now is as good a time as any to mention i might not have a net connection after the 29th.

the wireless network card fell out...
and now, for some reason, all the print in internet exploder is bold...
any tips on fixing that?
another question, does anyone know what wuaboot is? it runs in the backround sometimes and slows the bejesus out of me! i can tell just by the sound of the comp now when that program starts!
and another Q, how did that make it so i can't resize my exploder window by holding ctrl and scrolling the mouse?

WUAUBoot is one of the automatic Windows Update program used on Windows ME. It is the source of alot of problems, as it tries to download Windows Updates in the background. It's crap and should be disabled. IMHO.
Turning off Automatic updates should get rid of the problem. If not you can remove it from the MSCONFIG Startup tab list.

i just realized now though, i can't play ANY sounds, and pretty much all print on my comp is bold, and maybe a different size/font.
it says no driver availible somtimes, other times it says unsupported format. my first thought was the soundcard fell out too, but it's firmly in place!
what's a man to do with no BF?

the comp reacts the same way when the sound card is removed as it does when the damn thing is in there.
