The only troubles I've had with ME so far is the occasional freeze-up during shutdown. Duron 850MHz, 512Mb, dual monitors. On the other hand my partner's Pentium 133 (oc'd to 166) suffers from the same freeze-up but much more regularly. I think thats a registry problem because it was doing it with win95, and only when she was logged in (it was fine for me). I'll be doing a clean reinstall someday when we can be bothered reloading all the software. I wonder how much the stability problems depend on drivers, hardware etc. Cheers, - Dave David A.
