another weird thing whin i installed me on my sys sudenly my dial up speet on a analog external modem went from 40,000 or 44,000 to 26,000 baud and below. i can watch the lights on my modem and it was like never a stedy stream of data as it had been befor( i at the time thought it was the net). now back to 98 r2 updated with all security updats im gettin 38,000 or so BUT the first times i dailed out befor updating my copy of 98 r2 i was getting all 40,000 and 44,000 and even 48,000 ( im 30 miles from my isp) so i think i might install the whole thing again and be very selective about what dun updates i do .
ohh and did i mention that directx 8 is ununinstallable lol on windows me at least.
now none of these things were done in enought of a statistical sample . its just a few observations, please take it as such
