Re: Does any one know?

I didn't post every hour and I do know that it is volunteers which is why I
didn't. I just thought someone would have a heart and at least say there is
no cure or what ever.
But I do appreciate your ability to walk around the issue

I know the rules here but it makes me want to post every hour until
someone does help.
Thanks

Actually, I don't think you *do* know the "rules here" or you wouldn't
have posted this. This is Usenet - a public newsgroup posted on
Microsoft servers. The helpers are volunteers who don't work for the
company. If you didn't get an answer, it could be because:

1. No one reading the group had an answer to your problem and/or wasn't
interested in responding. It's *voluntary* remember.

2. You didn't express yourself clearly and people who glanced at the
question didn't want to bother.

3. People who might know the answer aren't reading the group right now.
Maybe they are on vacation.

Posting every hour will only result in people like me putting you in a
killfile. Most people will not search through a group that can get 500+
new posts a day for one you made three days ago.

So if you want to use these newsgroups effectively, take the time to
read at least some of the information at these links:

Otherwise post your question again, including details as discussed in
the "goodpost" and "smart-questions" links above OR take your machine
to a professional computer repair shop (not your local version of
BigStoreUSA).

This has nothing to do with "caring". It has to do with you
understanding Usenet and how newsgroups work.
