Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Personally I'd stick with XP and recommend others to do the same. Vista has no redeeming features about it that would make me want to use it again, I just dumped it off a new Laptop and went back to XP. Vista has a some compatibility problems with software and hardware still, but if you buy a Laptop that's designed for Vista then it should work.
