I first stumbled across Vistax64 googling who knows what - asked a question (which I never got an answer to btw
) started answering questions instead and haven't left since.
Coming across to here was a natural progression
I'm user #4.
I think i fall into the same group as most people. Had a problem with vista (lots of bsod to do with dodgy ati card/driver) so googled for an answer and registered with vistax64.com. Hung around cos i liked the people on there and then migrated over when sevenforums.com was created.
Is vistax64.com and sevenforums.com run/owned by the same people?
Honestly? I have no idea how I ended up here...although I did visit Vista Forums a few times. I'm guessing I ended up here right as the Win7 builds started leaking out...
Either way, I'm glad I ended up here. This is easily the best forum on the interwebs.
Hi ouchwhat and welcome to Se7en Forums
Yes, they are both run by the same people. John (z3r010) is the owner and webmaster on both sites, and is the main Administrator. The other Administrator, again on both sites, is Shawn (Brink). I, together with a few others, am a Moderator on both sites.
Hope this answers your query.
Ah I see.
I stumbled upon this forum when I was searching for some help with moving Win 7 to a different partition.
I remembered that the Vistax64 forums had a very similar skin, forum layout and feel. I had thought the owner of sevenforums.com had ripped vistax64.com's layout
Glad you cleared that up :)
I heard about Win 7 last December .. I always look for forums when starting to understand any OS. It's an old habit from installing many distro's of Linux. :)
Member 336. I joined Vista Forums in March of 2008 for Brink's excellent tutorials and migrated here in November after giving W7 build 6519 a whirl.
The knowledge on this site is exceptional.

I was always looking for tutorials here... but never wanted to register...
Wen Seven Release Candidate came out... I was looking for new leaks on Google and...
Now I'm here and proud to be part of this great community :)
