PuterDudeJim..........MIA!!

Gonna be a few days...

Wednesday, December 10, 2008 by PuterDudeJim | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

   Hey Guys and Gals!   In lieu of my recent promotion to Master Apprentice Extraordinaire (lol) I got an early Christmas Gift! My awesome wife got me a new Desktop PC for getting that promotion! I now have 2 gigs of memory and all kinds of storage space, and a really crappy OS called Vista to learn! Lucky me! (yeah, right) So, I will be MIA for a few days while I get this new rig all setup and networked with my notebook, and my wife's notebook. I am told that networking with Vista is a real %ITCH, so, if anyone has any helpful ideas on that subject, please post here, or email, or PM. I would break this up a little, but when I hit the enter key, I get a ding, and nothing happens. I suppose I could insert a line break. I have a few DX themes to work on for some recent WBs. I will get back asap, but probably just in and out for the next few days. Again....any networking knowledge will be greatly appreciated. I have a Vista Home Premium desktop, and 2 XP lappies. HELP!!!

I have found networking with Vista very easy. Just turn on network discovery, and you should be able to see every machine accessable. You can also map other computers user accounts as drives. If you have any specific problems or questions, you can e-mail me.


Well, I did finally get to the point where I can now see all the computers, and share files and the printer. Now what is this about mapping them as drives?

Well peeps, I am back. Let's not bother with the parade or the band, forget the balloons and the cake, let's just get on with the games!!    I do have one question, is it just me, or is anyone else having this problem? When I am replying, or posting original, for thet matter, I am unable to just hit the enter key and start a new line. I get a ding sound, and nothing happens. I am forced to insert a line break. Anyone else having this problem? I am running Vista and using WC Browser.

I haven't had that problem with Vista.  Of course that's probably because I use XP.  WELCOME back Jim!!!!!!!!!

Put a smiley where you want a line break,it makes it's own space.

Works for me.
