This is a very unusual problem to have with Win ME - are you sure that your
operating system is Millennium Edition??
If it's Windows 2000, please redirect your query to the Windows 2000
newsgroups...

If ZA worked for you - what's stopped it working?
Has it suddenly started letting everything through? - I somehow doubt it!

Fdisk File - Large hd support
It's a self-executing Zip file - you can open it with WinZip (this is common
to many MS patches)

Cannot open Windows Word or Word documents
Sometimes it's caused by a bad shutdown of Word - sometimes it just seems to
'happen'!. I know of no real defined cause.
Glad it worked for you, and thanks for the feedback - Good Luck!

Cannot open Windows Word or Word documents
This problem is almost always caused by a corrupted Normal.dot template file
do a Search for all such files, and rename ALL found to Normal.JNK - reboot,
and try opening Word again.
