I recently acquired an old Emachines eTower 600is and am trying to restore it. I found the official restore discs online, but I've hit a snag in the install process. When loading up the OS, it brings up the registration screen, which I can't/don't know how to bypass, so I basically have to complete the process. Unfortunately, the resolution seems to be too low, and the screen is messed up with labels of what I'm supposed to be inputting obscured. I tried guessing what it wants me to fill in, but no luck; it's also not part of the standard ME install process, so I haven't been able to watch a video of Windows ME being installed and see from that. I tried different monitors and video cards, but the same result.

Any ideas? I have an odd feeling there is a really simple solution I'm not seeing.
