(Of course, other than re-installing the entire OS again-I could not install anything more with my PII, 233, 96 MB, p;d Sisco graphics card-everything else hangs during the installation procedure itself).  Maybe could I update just QT to 3.1 with a Mandrake 9.1/9.2 CD?  Will it be possible?

Well, I've updated from Mandrke 9.2 to Mandrake 10.0 just using "urpmi",
may be you can update you 9.0 to 9.2, using "urpmi", and the easy-urpmi
tool provided at http://www.urpmi.org/easyurpmi/index.php , where you
can find a 9.2 mirror and start updating all the system. If you want to
update QT, you'll need to update all KDE desktop, for me it was easy as
I use ADSL, may be if you use a modem can take some days... If you have
a 9.2 CD you could add that CD to your update sources using Mandrake
Control Center, and update from CD instead of internet (it uses to be
faster:)

But, be prepared to use just console in text mode, as these updates not
always perform a nice job!
