My Pc is fine UNTIL I enter the internet domain and the it just freezes, Im not doing anything different to what I normally do it has just decided it doesnt want to play - On the rare event that I do get online I just get loads of .dll messages and then my pc freezes.

For one reason or another I thought my best option - as I have nothing on the pc anyway would be to completely wipe the hard drive and start again - trouble is I havent a clue how to do this.

W95 you have 3 choices . With W98 , if you have IE5.1 or higher & you
still have IE4 installed the following applies . No IE4 only 2 choices .
IE5.5 if over the top of 5.1 , offers 3 choices .

You can install IE5.1 straight over 4 . A big feature with IE5.1 or higher is that
it can be repaired without uninstalling . Here is how to do it . Open
Control Panel , Add / Remove , click on Microsoft Internet Explorer ,
then click on add / remove down the bottom . This opens a window with
3 choices .

Choice 1. Add , insert your IE5.1+ install program & you can find other
items you may not have installed 1st time .

Choice 2. Repair , fixes problems that may crop up with IE5.1+ / Outlook Express

Choice 3. Restore . If unfixable , removes IE5.1+ & goes back to the previous version ,
now if you want to you can reinstall IE5.1 or a later version or another browser
altogether .

No Microsoft Internet Explorer in Control Panel !
