I recently received and old computer with Word 6.0, Excel ?.? and PowerPoint. I bought an old 14.4 ISA modem. I tryed to install Internet Explorer 3.03 FULL. But when the installation finished there was no icon Connect to the Internet. So I search an Other version of IE, 3.02a but it didn't work too. I wasn't able to uninstall it so I erase the folder (I know it's stupid, but...). When I opened and closed the computer (English is not my first language but I think the exact word for this is REBOOT) The DOS error message appeared: NTDSL is missing... Now, what do I have to do: Reinstall DOS (if yes which version and how) or Jump this and directly reinstall win. Which version: 3.1 or 3.11.(what I have to do with my modem when configuring win 3.1) after which version of explorer have a dialer (do I need Trumpet) after for Microsoft Office: maybe someone could give it to me in excange of an RECENT APP or SERIAL.
As you can see i'm very desesperate. I would be very happy if you could help me. If you have a question e-mail me at: amisdublues@videotron.ca .
THANK YOU VERY MUCH (Extremely sincerly)!!! and please excuse me for my english: it's not my first language.

I suggest upgrading to Windows 95 if you have a 486/DX computer with 8MB RAM. It comes with Internet Explorer and Internet dial-up tools. You will also need a Windows startup disk. If you need the Windows 95 setup and Windows startup disks email me :)
