JP>The CD still does not work, I slipped in 4 other devices and
JP>none was seen when doing a DOS boot and selecting " with CD device"
JP>it looks like the MoBo is shot on that connection. Strange enough,
JP>it will play music CDs (???). It will also show the data CD in there
JP>on screen but a blank page. So, in a way, it honours the medium but
JP>will not read data. Do you have a solution ? ( not hoping for much,
JP>am I ? )

I think it's toast.  Stop beating yer head against a brick wall.  ;)

JP>Also, I remember a while back, that you had mentioned that the
JP>Me OS at times, would not shut-down. It did here before but now, it
JP>does not. I went to Updates and got them all, 60 so of them, but
JP>still the shut-down hangs and the off switch has to be pushed. Do
JP>you remember the solution for this one ? This is the Lady's Thinkpad
JP>and she would be happy this way, she only does e-mail with it and
JP>AOL runs fine, I am not happy and would not let this machine get the
JP>best of me.

These two articles are specifically for 98 and 98se but, since you upgraded
from 98 to ME, maybe they're still valid:
