Welcome to Windrivers sunnyboy
First thing to do with compatibility mode is make sure you have loaded the motherboard drivers, available here
It is also possible you have got the cdrom dos drivers installed and being loaded in your config sys and autoexec.bat - Windows ME does not use those normally, but will do if set to do so.
Start, run type in
sysedit
click ok, you will get up a window with 5 notepad type files, check through the autoexec.bat and config.sys for mentions of mscdex.exe. If you find a line with that in put REM at the beginning of the line - this remarks out the line and windows will ignore it and not load the dos drivers.
here is an article about hyperthreading as I thought Windows ME is incapable of taking advantage of hyperthreading.
Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."
