Seriously, it sounds like EE damaged the registry. A System Restore is in order.

find the disks that came with your computer that say something about a "QuickRestore" or "system recovery" then you should just be able to pop that disk in and restart your comp.
It should give you instructions from there. (there may be multiple disks in your quick recovery set.)

unfortunatly i got my computer used from my moms friend so i didnt get any disks so is there any other way? or do i have to somehow find a disk
not if you have a habit om backing up your system but by default everytime you start up the OS and shutdwn window2000 & XP due take a snapshoot so if in any case you should beable to go back to previse setting before you had installed EE and if you install other software at the same time they will be gone also..I hope you have done this..?

There is a difference between 2K and ME...only ME and XP have system restore
