I IMHO would recommend you use 8.0 if you can get it to work. I too think it is a great version, an until just today I have stuck with it because I could not get everything working in 8.2 or 9.0 so I would have to go back to 8.0. I finally got my printer ( hp 820cse ) working in 9.0 so now I'll

I had the exact same problem with the exact same cpu (different mb no doubt, you couldn't have the pos I have). It turned out I needed more memory. Not knowing a lot about the mb or the chips I bought I'm still trying to figure out why two 128mb chips give me 65mb of memory. The happy part is ML

Just to clarify -- the last release for the 486 was 7.0, not 8.0 . If you installed 8.0 and had it working, it was a Pentium class processor. Michael At 08:46 AM 12/28/2002 -0600, you wrote: I IMHO would recommend you use 8.0 if you can get it to work. I too think it is a great version, an
