Hi nici, what is/are the error code/codes?

This thread from the SMP for Windows Beta Forum might help point you in the right direction...

Good luck and let us know how you get on/are getting on.

But not for me.....

The top link to the forums actually takes me to the list of recent posts for the forums, not the forums themselves... unless that's what it's supposed to do.....


Should it read 'Latest Forum Posts' ?

To clarify, that's the 'SPCR Forums' just under the 'Navigation' header, not the 'Forums' link under the 'Sections' Header.

There was a Slashdot link there as well...
