yeah, but when there are about 30 topics that i can see on the first two pages with under 2 replies, it does rather take the piss .. i mean .. i've been waiting nearly 3 days for a reply, and i can see people further down who never get them .. i know it's a lot of work, but answering too 3 out of 40 isn't really super slick. no offence intended, i know it's all volunteer .

corsair831 you don't have any threads that are not getting assistance, not sure what your whining about.
You need to understand, not everybody knows how to help resolve every bodies issue(s). If someone is not comfortable answering a thread because they really do not know how to answer it they will most likely pass it by. Some issues are more complex than others. You are permitted to bump your own thread after 24 hours of no assistance.

I don't need to try to explain how hard it is to manage this forum and all the sub forums included. We try our best.

topbypass, have you read over these? They are articles to help you understand if your current pc was/ir upgradable and compatible to run vista.

I had installed Vista Ultimate on a used Compaq Presario. I know I probably should not have installed on a pc that did not have a dual core processor but I needed to have Vista for business purposes. To my surprise it needed more memory and a video card. AND, the sound does not work. It is because there is not driver compatible out there for vista.
