From what I understand, DirectX 10 are only for Windows Vista according to this page. I am running DirectX 9c on my xp and Skype works fine, so you should not need DirectX 10 unless you have Windows Vista. To find out if there are any updated drivers for the sound card for instance you need to know who made the card. To find out the manufacturers names, please try one of the following: Method 1: Via the System Properties menu 1. Click on START->SETTINGS->CONTROL PANEL->SYSTEM 2. From the System Properties window: 1. click on the "Device Manager" tab if you are using Windows 95/98,ME,NT, or 2000 2. click on the "Hardware" tab and then select "Device Manager" if you are using Windows XP 3. Click on the "+" next to "Sound, video, and game controllers" to expand the list 4. You will see several devices listed. For every audio device listed (such as Creative SBLive!) , perform the following steps: 1. Write down the device name (this is the name of your sound card) 2. Right click on the device and select "Properties" 3. Select the "General" tab and write down the manufacturer (such as "Creative Technology, Ltd") 4. Select the "Driver" tab and write down the Driver Provider (such as "Microsoft" or "Creative") as well as the Driver Date and version Method 2: Via the DXDIAG utility Use this method if you could not find the manufacturer using method 1 above. For example, some computers do not have a physically separate sound card. Instead, they have a sound chip embedded in the motherboard. In this case a sound card manufacturer will not appear in the System Properties (it may just say "Generic Sound card".) 1. Click on START->RUN 2. Type "dxdiag" (minus the quotes) in the 'Open:' dialog box and the press "OK" 3. The DirectX Diagnostic Tool window will appear 4. Click on the "Sound" tab 5. In the 'Device' section, write down the name, and manufacturer 6. In the 'Drivers' section, write down the name and version Now you should have written down some information similar to this: When you have completed the steps in any method above, you should have written something down similar to the following: Then google the manufacturers name and and you should hopefully find their site in the google results and on their site you should be able to find the latest driver with the above info easily.

According to Microsoft this can happen for several reasons, one of them are a corrupt e-mail profile and another is a problem with the firewall. Please see if this MS article helps.

It looks good. Please let us know if you need anything else.

The site has been added to the blogs section. Please verify that it looks/works as expected. Also, this "Links of Interest page" are not too easy to find at the moment unless the visitor knows he/she should click the "Sitemap" link first, so I would like to recommend you to link to the "Links of interest" from your homepage. That way both the visitor have even more easily found content to read and and the risk that we remove your link (because we can´t find it) in a future cleanup will be minimal.

While I haven´t bridged WP and vBullentin, usually you will only need to add both databases users to the other database and then run a bridge script, so in this case: Add WP database user to vBulletins database and vBulletins database user to the WP database then run any eventual script that came with the bridge.

TCH already allows adult sites as long the content is legal. Here is a good thread discussing what is allowed on a TCH-hosted site.

Lots of things happens on a lunch that is 3 months long. Good to see you back, Rob.

You could check moneybookers.com. I´ve used them once to transfer money from my bank account to Skype which went fine. If they have the service you want, I don´t know.
