Give me a few days. I want to test it on a couple of Windows Me PC.
I have a HP 1G with nVidia GeForce DDR card, in quadrple boot mode,
with Linux, Windows2000, Windows Me, and Windows Nt 4.0. It works
on it. Therefore, I assumed it should work on All Windows Me ;-)
I will post later, after testing a on a few more PC's with Windows Me.
I need a few days for it.
