[QUOTE="biglou, post: 270535"]
As some of you already know, I am a full-on compuspode.  I can do some amazing things on occaision, and other times I can't seem to send an Email without causing a "Fatal Error"!

I have two basic questions and I'll try to provide as much pertinant info to help answer them.

1) I just can't seem to get Outlook Express to work.  I have two hotmail accts and I can't get either of them to work.  I have been to all of the "Help" sites, including the MS Help Desk.  I understand about the POP3 server and the SMTP server.  I just know that I am missing something simple.  I have friends who can make it work, so I know it can be done!

2) Is it worth the money to upgrade from Windows ME to Windows XP?  I hear great things about XP but I don't really understand all of the technicalities of what is being said, such as "It is more stable", etc.

My PC info: Compaq 5000 (I think, I know it's a 500x), WinME OS, Pentium Celeron 800mHz processor, 40 Ghz HD.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
