There's a few things you could try I guess... or at least this is what I would do:
1. Get rid of windows ME 'cause it's evil
2. Internet explorer could be updated, or a more recent version could be installed. You can also go to add/remove programs and roll it back.
3. Quick re-install of your OS.

Hi Kelly,
The icon for your sound is here,start/settings/control panel/sounds and multimedia check the box "show volume control on taskbar" as for the 256 color problem maybe try updating your display drivers right click "my computer" /properties/device manager/display adapters/properties/drivers/update driver. Or go to your video cards web site and download the latest drivers. good luck!

I guess each to their own. I run WindowsMe and IE 6.0 with never any major problems with either. Every person has likes and dislikes, don't put down something just because you've had problems with it.

ME is not evil,if you know how to run/use it,and IE 5.5 SP2 is much more reliable than IE6.Especially for ME users.


IMHO

Did you just reinstall windows? Did you have a virus? WHy are all of these things all of a sudden MIA or wounded?

Attempting to fix individual problems without an idea of whats going on will be impossible.
