    Been lurking here off and off for a long time.;) Ran into a problem with my wireless and decided it was time to join so I can search. Have other problems too, but the search is good for now. When I can't figure it out, I definitely will post. Find the biggest problem that I have is that sometimes the explanations and/or solutions for problems are above my head. Not all though, some are easy enough for me to follow. Glad there are so many computer saavy people here.:)

    Hi Beva, and welcome to the forum, all you need to do is to decide what area your problem related to is it Malware ( spyware and virus ), Software ( Windows or another software application error etc ), Hardware, Drivers etc ... then post in the specific forum for that question, but do have a read of the below link first too as infomation is key to assisting quickly...


    Before You Post Asking For Help, Please Read This

    Asking for help in a forum is much further than many people have even thought about,most just take it to the repair shop

    Just say so and the explaination will be simplified as many times as it takes to get your computer sorted,,you'll find members are very patient,read through carefully and take one step at a time,theres no such thing as a newb on here :)

    And thank you Rikky for saying that, it makes me feel real confident about getting help when I need it so I won't feel like such a newb.:cool:

    I'm not familiar with that software,SP1+2 are free downloads from microsoft,if validation is the problem the rules of the board dont allow discussion of how to bypass it

    Sorry :)
