Cool

'afternoon all - 1hr in to process and I am reformatted ... Win98 installed and darnit it, the CD I got with the flat screen apparently doesn't have drivers (pray I can get online and get em) and the same with the CD that came with my printer ... am installing AOL as I type and it is doing IE6 for me.

The reason for reformatting/reinstalling Win98 is that my pc wouldn't load the drivers for AOL correctly, just kept running in a loop. I have to say I can't fault the AOL tech help in Scotland (once I got to them) because they really did work with me for probably a total of 2hrs installing, reinstalling etc different aspects of connectivity).

Anyway, its done - my screen is a stupid 600x whatever but at least I still have the free dialup via ye ancient laptop!

All good experience, despite the occasional feeling that its all too horrible - AOL has just said that 16 colors (which I cannot change) doesn't give best performance ... like I don't know that??!! grrrrrrrrrrrr

and before I forget my manners entirely, THANK YOU all who have responded ...
