Some resist finding and installing the video card driver and then the DirectX version of their choice.
I'd like to ask what the firewall is protecting this OS from. I've yet to find an exploit for Windows 95, 98 and ME but do often find these OSes with their 64 thousand byte resource pools often can't run too much without trouble. I'll install a firewall to sniff out if a software is calling home, then uninstall it since the resource issue can cause more trouble than anything else.
Best of luck finding a video card driver.

Error message on startup
Internet Explorer has caused an error in GDI.EXE
Symptoms are moth eaten looking icons on desktop and icons in files and folders do not match program
I have restarted computer and symptoms are still the same.
I have tried System restore and the symptoms are still the same
GDI stands for Graphics Device Interface
I can't think of any recently installed programs or games played on this computer that may be giving me this headache.
Any answers or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
