    Windows 7 User - Windows XP Support Tech


    XP Question

    I noticed the other day when I was reading through the forum that there is a Windows 8 site. I checked it out and it is nice to see that when the betas come out people will be able to help each other there. I also have notice that there are some great people on this site and have resolved many problems with Windows 7.

    My question is: Is there a sister site to this one for Windows XP? And do the same smart users here read and reply in it? I have a Windows XP problem that no one has been able to solve and I would like to post it in these forums and see if someone is smarter than Microsoft at resolving a problem. – Thanks in advance.

    Go to the chillout room Thats the place to ask questions like that. A moderator will probably make the final call. Whether its yes or no Have a Great New Year. Here in CT just a few more hours and its 2010.

    It is okay...we support a host of issues that sometime has no affiliation with Windows itself...

    there is no sister site for XP as John only started up the Windows Forums series with Vista...

    John hosts three sites: Vistax64.com (Windows Vista Forums), sevenforums.com (Windows Seven Forums...duh), and theeightforums.com (Windows 8 Forums)
