Don't ask me how though as i've no idea how to do it!! Or try using Firefox browser, its a whole lot better and faster than IE (Internet Explorer) My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Good luck and nice to see you again! My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

One day they may get it sorted but when? She mainly uses it for games, but even games that are vista compatible dont work properly on it. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

My dad has Windows XP home which I have to use. However I like Mac OS/linux. My system isn't good enough to upgrade to vista anyways. @Roses - you can reformat to Windows XP if you wish. Or get a seperate partition installed with Windows XP. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
