problem with image on screen
Sure hope someone can help me. The Image that comes on my
screen on start up looks as if it is on safe mode, but is not. have even used back up to try and restore since system restore didnt help. Went to download Scanner application that quit working and disapeared somewhere in my comp and had to ctrl+alt+del because download for scanner wouldnt finish loading , now my screen's picture is large and faded as if on safe mode, but is not safe mode.

Sounds like your Display Adapter driver is no longer being properly
recognised, is incorrectly set-up, or is corrupted. Boot into Safe Mode and in Device Manager, 'Remove' any/all Display Adapters and Monitors and then re-boot. WinMe *should* re-detect (Plug&Play) your video card and monitor and then should install the 'correct' drivers. If it still doesn't help, you'll need to install the latest WinMe driver for your Video Card (Adapter) which you should be available to download from the card manufacturers web site.

Duh?? - that makes no sense that I can see?? -or have I just had one too
many??? Ah - I see now - you're referring to the advice I gave John. Fortunately Mart has already posted quite adequate advice to the OP - which hopefully will do the trick.
