First time get rid of ME that os sucks period. Did you reinstall a fresh copy of ME when you upgraded?? If you did my guess is that you are seeing the difference between a computer with some spyware, you might have not been able to detect it..., and one with no spyware.. That is a soild speed for not tweaking...

a) cant get rid of ME atm, no XP or 2K availible to me.
b)well i had formatted on my old computer and checked the speed and it was the same as before, now that i had formatted again, with a whole new set up the speeds are higher

im thinkin about tweakin tho

[Swimmer]

that is good!!! I would recommend getting a copy of something other than ME... Microsoft really screwed up with that OS...

[ecliptic]

yeah tell me about it, i just dont have access to 2k/XP and i dont have the money for either atm :-/

yah man you need to get rid of ME. Xp is the way to go!

Xp or 2000pro... I think that 98se is better than ME... Just my opinion...
