Hey, I'v realy been thinking of installing Windows Longhorn, but I have Windows ME . I was wondering if it would still work. Also will this mess up my computer? Also I have a slow connecton (that might chage) to the internet. Also will all programs work with Longhorn? Thanks for any advice.

First of all, welcome to PROnetWorks. Please take the time to browse all of our great areas. You say you're running Windows ME. If you're hardware is at about the Windows ME level, then it may or may not run Longhorn. As far as, messing up your computer, anytime you're running an Alpha level operating system, there is always that chance. What programs work? Check out this thread.

you donīt go have problems instaling Longhorn with Me, you just need a partition - about 4, 5 Gb and is better NTFS.

if you a medium hardware it is work, but is recomended you see the tweaking guides of this forum.

some software is "incompatibility"(i am portuguese) with longhorn like antivirus and other programs who need the system

Well for starters have you tried XP if you are looking for an OS to use as your priomary you probably don't want to use Longhorn. As far as if it will mess up your computer, who knows, but depending opn your specs it may not give you the desired result.

Longhorn is its own independent os, as long as you install lh in another partition it will not effect your other operating systems. Most programs will work under compatibility mode, except for a few programs including anti virus.
