If Something Goes Wrong
Windows Millennium Edition is not working
Windows Millennium Edition uses a file called Io.sys, which 
contains all the information needed to start the computer. 
Although your computer does not need the Config.sys and 
Autoexec.bat files to start, it does process these files to support 
backward compatibility with some programs and device drivers. 
The same holds true for the System.ini and Win.ini files.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Programs and devices that are backward 
compatible are designed to work with older operating 
systems and other programs. For example, many features of 
Windows Millennium Edition are backward compatible with 
earlier versions of Windows. This lets you use older 
programs with Windows Millennium Edition.
Most of the information contained in these files is now stored in 
the Windows Millennium Edition Registry. However, they are still 
processed during system startup. Bootlog.txt file contains a record 
of all the components and drivers loaded during startup and the 
status of each. When you select Step-by-step confirmation, you 
can view all these files one line at a time to help diagnose the cause 
of a problem.
Internet problems
My Internet connection is very slow.
Many factors contribute to the speed with which you can surf the 
Internet. They include: modem speed, time of day (when everyone 
else is surfing, your access can be slow) and popularity of the site. 
If accessing a particular site is very slow, try again later.
