Windows ME installs as an upgrade on top of Windows 98se. Whenever it attempts to boot, the computer. No matter what boot option I choose, (safe mode or step-by-step confirmation answering no to everyting) it reboots. Any solutions?
Everything is installed on a fat32 partition on an SATA HDD of 500gb

How much RAM?? 512MB is max unless you mod the vcache settings.

How do I mod the vcache settings? I found a category in system.ini called "vcache" and there's nothing in it. What do I do with it?

Take a look at #6 from that guide.

And I'd seriously start off with 1GB then maybe 2GB - 4 GB in ME is ridiculous, if you want all 4 GB of RAM to be recognised and used properly then use Vista 64 bit.
