I have ME and IE 6.0 SP1, I keep getting the OE fatal
error when using IE. The only article I can find talks
about add/remove (repair IE) Is there anything else I can
do?

That's 0E, not OE. It usually indicates a driver problem, most often video
or sound. More information from the error would have been helpful.

You may need new video drivers. Check the site for your video board
manufacturer. Meanwhile you can do the following:
1. Use the default mouse pointers.
2. Turn down your color depth. (Right click the desktop and choose
Properties | Appearance | Settings) Some people find that increasing color
depth helps.
3. Turn down your graphics hardware acceleration. (For Win 98, Start |
Settings | Control Panel | System | Performance | Graphics button) You will
see little, if any, performance degradation.
4. Turn off your desktop wallpaper.

If these make the problem go away you need new video drivers.

If you have an ATI video board, try adding these lines to System.ini
