| 637083 | 2008-02-03 12:37:00 | My upgrade to Opera v 9.25 has gone horribly wrong and I have now ended up with something called "Opera for 8-bit computers" and IE doesn't work either. Have tried unistalling/reinstalling both 9.01 and 9.25 but no good. I have winxp sp2 and everything else is working ok, please mail any solutions as it is almost impossible to navigate in an 8-bit page. |

| 637084 | 2008-02-03 17:11:00 | This may help for Opera (www.opera.com). Try changing it back to "Author" mode. If that was the cause of the 8-bit mode in Opera, it shouldn't have affected IE. What happens when you try and use IE? Any error messages? If the above doesn't fix Opera, then consider using System Restore to roll your computer back just prior to when things went wrong. |
