Try reinstalling your video drivers. It is possible that the drivers you
were using when running Win 98 are incompatible with the Win me operating
system. Check the manufacturer's web site for updated Win Me compatible
video drivers for your graphics card.

First though what does the Device Manager have to say about your video
adapter? Right Click on My Computer, Properties | Device Manager and
click the + sign alongside Display adapters.

You might want to try the following. Boot to Safe Mode, open the Device
Manager and delete all entries in the section Display adapters. Now
reboot back into Normal Mode and let Win Me redetect your video card and
see if it then installs the correct drivers.

anyone had this problem? and if so, how do I fix it? Thank
you in advance for any info. Take care
