I'm trying to install windows ME for some guy, and once Setup reboots for the first time, then checks for hardware and stuff, it says "Explorer.exe not loaded" or something like that, then "Please reinstall Windows". I tried installing 3 times, and always the same thing. It,s with Windows ME Full version, so I cannot upgrade from 98 or some other OS. So how the f*** do I install ME on it ???

Nevermind, I found the answer myself ! Some file, COMCTL32.DLL was corrupted or something, so I had to copy it off my comp and paste it in the \windows\system directory. After this install continued perfectly !
