Which version is it???

DarkRanger · Post by **DarkRanger** » 30 Apr 2007, 11:19

Rayne, if you want to help someone, just do it properly.

Shut up. I answered his question to the point. He did not ask for the version.

And besides, I cannot google because I'm killing what's left of my cap so I don't have bandwidth to waste on noobs.

@tjecco: none of the above helps you if you are running 64bit vista, hence rayne and dae's curt responses... in order to be of assistance, it's best if you declare the flavour upfront...

a brief perusal of the current vista threads may be of benefit to you...

Wow, i dont see anything wrong with the way he did it.

Tjecco asked if there's a version that works in Vista, Rayne said yes. tjecco asked a "Yes" or "no" question...

Technically, yes Dae, both you and Rayne answered correctly.

But at the same time, you both know why DarkRanger attempted to admonish Rayne, but I like the fact you guys are playing the victims. Very Entertaining.

I give this thread 7/10

Jamin you are the funnay.
10 Points for effort

@ Rayne and DJV: I wasn't trying to be rude or anything, and yeah, it was just a yes no question, but why just answer yes. that moved the guy 1 mm closer to what he really wanted. Any person will be able to think for themselves to give the guy the version as well.

Oh and Rayne, I'm not just refering to your answer in this thread. I'm talking about every other answer you give people. just answer part of their question or 100% thumbsucking is what comes from you.

Rayne · Post by **Rayne** » 30 Apr 2007, 19:30

"thumbsucking"? Please enlighten me and point them out you fkn doos. Funny how your the first ***** to complain since I've been here.

This coming from the fool who answered wrong, pft. Many earlier builds have been supported prior to 7.8.5.0. I could at fkn leisure have guessed a version and most probably have been correct.

It's quite evident that his using a bundled OEM so unless his now going to charge the R800+ to credit card, all you did was direct him to a trial download. Yeah my man, what a great piece of advice you gave.

Next time do as I tell you and stfu, before my pixels fckup your pixels.

In Rayne's and DAE_JA_VOO's defence, if you ask a yes or no question, expect a yes or no answer. That's how the Internet works. If you don't like it, tough.

In response to the original poster: take a look at this resource.

This is nit picking but it's actually more like R570 it's only R800 if he wants a retail box copy. He can get a serial number with which he then just updates the trial version for $80.

Hey Rayne help me out here. My ballies pc is networked. The printer is shared and it works fine on my pc when printing something from here. I have the printer found as a network printer (XP). Now I just went into Vista and go the same way as i did. Run as Admin "Add printer" Now it doesn't find the Shared printer on my Ballies pc. What might be the problem.

Canon printer shared works 100% in XP but cant find it from Xp to my Vista.

Help, anyone had this problem!!!

There's some file you have to download and install on the xp machine. I read that somewhere but I can't remember the name of the file.
