[QUOTE="RavingMac, post: 1386207, member: 45350"] I went back and checked your last several posts, and better than half have gotten a response. Most that have gotten no replies or follow on posts were not the type that generally generates much in the way of responses. For example, if you post things on this order: "Hey, I just tried to format my HD and couldn't, does anyone know why?" or "Why can't I ______?" You will usually get no response, because: 1) there isn't nearly enough basic information in the post for someone to give an answer, and most won't want to take the time to fish for it 2) it comes accross like you haven't done your homework, Internet and forum searches etc 3) it doesn't have any hook, as in why is this important to you or them HTH Razormac [/QUOTE]
