    Help Me [help] Search Before Posting

    There is a lot of information available here and all of it is less than 4 months old.

    The Search window in the upper right hand corner is very useful. search posts not threads most of the time.

    Google and Yahoo are huge. just typing your problem in the window will likely bring a result.

    As JCarlos stated earlier label your problem thread correctly. This will bring help the fastest and will help others find the same answer easier. Panic labels do not help. for example:

    Wont Run Help!!!!!!!!!

    or

    Help Just Died!!!!!!!!!

    doesn't tell anybody that might be very knowledgeable with your problem that they have a great chance of helping you easily. A better label would look like:

    "Vista Home Premium64 wont shut down"

    And also as JCarlos stated before always list all of your components including model numbers. This way the person helping you knows exactly what they are dealing with.

     

    Thanks and Good Luck
