If you can't find one immediately, and need to rescue your files, or are
open to installing a new supported os. Try a Linux live cd like u-lite.
The "live cd" can boot the u-lite linux os from the cd without installing
on your harddrive. You can mount your windows formatted hard drive in
pcmanfm under the menu Applications/System Tools/Pcmanfm. Open pcmanfm
then simply by click the hard drive icon. This will mount it. Then save
your important documents and and files to an online storage like
freshdownload, badongo or megaupload. Then you can install the linux cd
to your hard drive, or reinstall winme.

U-lite is good for your era of computer. It has a browser, word
processor, spreadsheet program, instant messenger, and media player,
simple paint program and cdburner, preintalled. You can access thousands
of other programs through synaptic. Under the menu Applications/System
Tools/Synaptic.

You can download the live cd image here. http://u-lite.org/content/get-u-
lite. Then you need to burn it with a cd burner. After you burn it, it
can be used to boot your computer.
