And the manufacturers are blaming Microsoft (who, in return, is blaming the manufacturers.) Now, I'm not saying it's not improved...it IS more stable. But for pete's sake, before you go buy it, CHECK ON ALL[/b] OF YOUR HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE FIRST!!!!! MAKE [/b]ABSOLUTELY[/b] SURE IT WILL WORK!!!

Must admit I haven't heard or seen any probs with scanners or printers here. I only use Epson printers and Mustek scanners and both of these companies products work fine under ME. Don't know of any other manufacturers products not working as I only stick to products that don't give me or the customers grief.

Eactually, the Epson printers were what I had trouble with....the 670, and a few other *70 series Epsons. Lots of games, too.

I dunno??.... freaky coincidence??

On the backwards side, I used our OEM versions of ME to upgrade our 98SE demo systems in the office (took the lazy way out to avoid reloading software). dropped to dos, renamed win.com to win.bak and performed an upgrade with the full version.

Worked like a charm on a bunch of demos.
