Jeff, if you had this trouble at Fry's why does it say Best Buy in the header. Also there is no simple answer for you except to say you came to this newsgroup to complain about the idiots in computer stores, so why didn't you come to ask is if you would have trouble. We will listen, and the amount of answers you got to this thread suggest that maybe you would have received replies. Also upgrade to at least WIN95. And yes most of your WIN3.X apps should work with WIN95. Although installation can be problematic sometimes for the novice, it is likley worth a little pain now. Yes we would even offer advice.......gauranteed!!!!!!!!! or your money back /NEPTUNE -- Remove 'antispam' from my email address to respond directly to author.
