Can anyone help me obtain the manual or a copy of, that was
packaged with the Windows ME Upgrade Disk? |

I don't think that any manual accompanied any Win Me CD upgrade or full
and the best you can expect to find is a somewhat thin leaflet. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Ron wrote: Can anyone help me obtain the manual or a copy of, that was packaged with the Windows ME Upgrade Disk? |

Sounds reasonable, but whatever was provided I am interested in obtaining as it contains some information I seek. |

The point that Mike was trying to make is that there is NO information in
the leaflet that came with Win ME!! If you're looking for specific info, then let us know what, and we can almost certainly point you in the right direction. -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "Ron" wrote in message ... -----Original Message----- I don't think that any manual accompanied any Win Me CD upgrade or full and the best you can expect to find is a somewhat thin leaflet. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Ron wrote: Can anyone help me obtain the manual or a copy of, that was packaged with the Windows ME Upgrade Disk? .

Since you don't know what was provided I can't really understand how you can
say "it contains some information I seek". If you require information asking for it is usually the best way of obtaining the information. Most of the information relating to Win Me is included as part of Help & Support. In addition there are a dozen or so text files on the CD such as Cleanhd,txt, general.txt, programs.txt and readme.txt. For example I received no documentation whatsoever with my Win Me CD but mine was a "Technical Beta Special Edition" given to me by Microsoft in recognition of my work in testing during the Win Me beta. -- Mike Maltby Ron wrote: Sounds reasonable, but whatever was provided I am interested in obtaining as it contains some information I seek. |

FWIW, I actually bought my ME upgrade off-the-shelf...... and got not a lot
more (and pick your unfavourite deity alone knows where it is now, after two moves in the past 6 months!)g -- Noel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2004, Win9x) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's "Mike M" wrote in message ...

Given the state of this flat at the moment I'm surprised I find anything including my bed or the loo so perhaps I ought to think about moving as if nothing else I might get rid of some of my junk. :-) Cheers, -- Mike Noel Paton wrote: FWIW, I actually bought my ME upgrade off-the-shelf...... and got not a lot more (and pick your unfavourite deity alone knows where it is now, after two moves in the past 6 months!)g |

With regards to specifics, I am referencing "Digital Dave's Tip" in the February 26, 2001 issue of ComputorEdge and I quote "...Microsoft...put instructions in the manual that comes with WinMe on how to do a clean disk install using the upgrade version." I support in the technology area of a small, local private school and recently reformatted a number of HD's and was obliged to install Windows 98 Full Edition first, followed by a 98SE Upgrade. You can understand the savings in time if I could accomplish this directly from the Upgrade disk, hence my inquiry. Appreciate your taking the time to read my Post and Reply. Ron |
