    Hello, I can't understand whats up with my PC. I just did a clean install of Win98se. No problems thru the whole thing. I have everything up & running again but I have 1 weird situation that I never had before. When I go to "My Computer" and window opens, when I put mouse (cursor) over "C" hard drive it doesn't show how much of drive I'm using. Also, bigger problem is when I go into my Hard Drive "C" and open the Windows folder there is absolutely nothing there to open my windows folder. Did I miss something in the Folder Options, etc? Any help appreaciated.
    Thank-you,
    ~~Paul~~
    PS. just noticed that I can't get your Icons to show in my Post??

    PAULDEP--Probably too simplistic, especially if your reinstall did not go as planned.
    1) When you open My Computer and click on View, is "View as Web Page" checked?
    2) Do you mean you have no Windows folder in the C:\ directory? Have you run a Find on Windows to see if it is somewhere else?
    3) Sorry, can't even try to help with the smilies. :( (But can you just use the keyboard version to enter a smilie? For example, that smilie I just added can also be added by clicking ":" followed by "(" .)
