Lol. Well that's why I'm asking for help

I've also been trying to get ahold of my brother, to no avail.

We have Windows ME here in the basement. We have Windows XP upstairs...but that one isn't the screwed one.

Edit:

Just saw your reply. What would this disc look like that came with the computer? I'll have to look...

Also, I really don't think there is anything to lose. I have almost all of my pictures burned (the important ones) and I really don't know how I will ever get rid of all the junk on here and clean it. But I will heed your advice and be careful with what I'm doing...its just so frustrating!
