Hi Nelson

Thanks so much for this help. *
I'm on dialup so downloading these is just not possible. *I live in a
rural area and that is all we have here.

On the other hand, I have a friend in the city who has high speed. *I
will try to contact him tomorrow and have him download them and burn
me CDs.

I just installed PC-Linux on it and it works, but even for that I need
the video drivers because I am not getting the correct resolution. *I
can now install both Linux and Win2000 when I get it all together. *I
kind of like Linux, but it's hard to get used to.

I'll let you know when my friend gets these. *Thanks so much !!!

I'm glad I dont have the 4100 if it has that cap problem. *Seems to be
a problem on many newer motherboards. *I had one older MB go up in
smoke some years ago from that. *Whaty amazes me is that many old tube
radios and tvs from the 1950s thru 90's still work fine with their old
caps, as well as the old computers from the 80s. *They just dont make
anything good anymore !!! *Heck these computers are less than 5 years
old. *Of course I know these are cheap imported junk caps.

Thanks again !!!!

Jim, I made ISOs of our discs for the E-4000 if you still need them.

Here is what I have:

Let me know if this works. Also let me know when you have finished
downloading what you need because I don't have much space on my server.. I
will leave them up as long as I can in case anyone else needs them, though.

I would recommend staying with Windows 2000 or Windows XP. This computer is
plenty powerful enough to handle either of these OS'es.

You will have to extract the drivers CD ISO with WinRar. I was able to
compress it so it would download faster.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Have fun,
Nelson

Well, the same mindset responsible for contaminated toothpaste, cough
syrup and pharmaceuticals among other things is responsible for most of
the bad caps in the last ten years. *You can determine the quality of a
company by its web site and its documentation. *Some of these companies
have neither, because they simply want to shovel product out the door
and never hear from a customer again until the next order. *Or if you
get the printed product documentation and it does not have a copyright
statement or any info at all indicating the company that produced the
product.

Lack of regulation and oversight in the pharma and food industries kills
people. *Lack of quality control checks in the computer industry means a
lot of bad product out there, but hopefully no deaths due to a capacitor
blowing up and wrecking the computer controlling a satellite launch.

This is the price that we all pay for a business mindset in THIS country
that outsources to shave pennies off the cost of a product and ends up
with a shoddy sack of crap for a product. *Welcome to the wonderful
modern world of globalization.

Yep, crap begats crap.
