Finally I managed to send it. The mac version of outlook express is much better and less complicated. Anyway that is completely off the topic.
Anyway I will phone the computer shop that built my system. What do you see on the specs??? Anything I can use against the shopkeeper????

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS🙂
GOT IT WORKING YEPIIIIIII!!!!!!

Put it on IDE 2.....and it recognized it.
Basically the CD ROM and Burner were on the Primary Master and slave channel.

IDE secondary and Primary had nothing.
The HD and Zip were on the raid...IDE/fake scsi 100 DMA thing...
Windows with service pack 1 apparently does not recognise zip on the 100DMA thing....so I dissconected the cable. Purchased a new standard ide cable and connected it from the zip to the ide 2 slot.
Bingo ....I AM SO HAPPY NOW 🙂
I could not concentrate at work today as my mind was on my brand new 1st ever PC.
Its midnight I have to sleep.
Thanks for everyone who made the effort to reply.
My Apple Mac is feeling jealous at the attention I gave my PC ...it is looking at my Athlon 1.33 in very aggressive way.
I think they are falling in love with each other due to mutuall admiration and common hatred of INTEL 🙂

AS my signature says.....IT IS DEFINETELY ATHLON ALL THE WAY :::::::::::: FEEL THE POWER:CAN YOU FEEL IT::::::

Seriously we should all on this forum try to be helpfull to each other. Good example "Nelson Muntz". Thanks Nelson.
We should respect each others diffrences. If someone likes Intel or AMD it should not matter. This is not AMD or INTEL zealout forum.
It is a generall forum for both and others including Apple.
Lets put our MACHO EGOs asides.

I have to create my rig profile 🙂
