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.

Hi all, Probably a silly question,but are there any utilities out there that you could run on a PC that would identify all hardware in the system so that you could download all correct drivers? Cheers..

part of PnP definition is that every device has a unique code that software/operating system can see to ideftify it.

despite all the hype about plug n' play this seems to be a well hidden fact.
