Hello Mary,  Re this problem.  Do a restore point from the day after you
installed the high speed cable, this should get you going again.  I think
your problem is your OP system.  I had so much trouble with ME I went back
to 98 SE and now have XP.  It is the best thing since sliced bread.

Regards David Horley
