Im trying to set up my windows email. However, when I am having a hard time.
I used POP3 and STMP
I keep getting an error message. I also have an account with yahoo. Could
this be the problem?

If you're using a free US yahoo account, and specifying it as POP, yes,
that's a problem, as you're pointing to servers that don't exist.

Free US yahoo accounts can't be used directly with Windows mail. You have
to either pay for the premium service or use something like YPOP.

Check with your mail provider for the proper settings.

Please copy and paste the complete error message to your reply.

Also give the part of the email address after the @.

Free Yahoo will not work, as you have been told, without a few caveats.
