I don't know if you will see this but the problem is with the "web forum" software. It is seriously broken. I also seems to have gotten much worse over the last few days. This is not actually a web forum but a newsgroup. If you are using Windows Vista go to to Windows mail and access the Microsoft Communities to get to these newsgroups.

I am NOT replying to this specific post. This is a desperate attempt to
figure out HOW I can get a "New Thread" screen. I am signed in, I click on "New Thread" and nothing happens. HELP! I will check this thread later in case anyone sees my request. erico "drw" wrote: i posted two new thread w/ email notification upon response;however, when i attempt to check the replies the thread is missing (both threads) -- Amd.64x2-4200 (FIC k2BC51) ge6100 4gb 250SATA ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Try using Windows Mail to access these newsgroups, instead of the funky web
interface that you're using. "erico" wrote in message ... I am NOT replying to this specific post. This is a desperate attempt to figure out HOW I can get a "New Thread" screen.

Thank you all for the information, however like most non-techies, I am
ignorant of what a "Newreader" is or most of the technical aspects of other suggestions. I shall try to educate myself from your links, however. I was once successful at getting really good help from a true forum, rather than the totally irrelevant garbage and suggestions that the "official" help directs you to, but I could not locate relocate the forum. Just once I would like to find a system "help" site that took a direct approach to a simple question without a thousand menu steps and showering you with wonderful confusing crap you don't care about. I totally agreed with the "60 Minutes" piece on "Geeks" that the companies sell the hardware and software realtively cheaply so they have little budget for support.
