Dinggus Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I don't remember why I signed up, but it was back in 2004 and for some reason I assumed I forgot the password and made a new account. How can I get these account merged or the old one deleted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven P. Administrators Posted May 24, 2011 Administrators Share Posted May 24, 2011 I found this site way back in the the early days when someone was spamming it on a dalnet IRC channel. No idea what you mean :whistle: I don't remember why I signed up, but it was back in 2004 and for some reason I assumed I forgot the password and made a new account. How can I get these account merged or the old one deleted? And Dinggus if you remember the account name and email it was associated to I can merge them, PM me.

g8crash3r Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 I found Neowin via Google way back 2002 while I was searching for the news about Windows XP, then codenamed "Whistler," being leaked. :p From then on until now, I'm hooked. Though not really active because of my work but I always turn to Neowin for the latest tech news and leaked softwares. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleasureseeker Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Came here from a link on another site. A very long time ago - I was running Windows 2000 for the first time and looking for tips and tricks to help transition from Win95. I did have another login name but that's long dead I think :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cataleptik Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 If you can't remember your first or first topic, go to your profile, click Find member's posts/topics, click on last and scroll down to the bottom :) I joined because I needed desperate help as I had succesfully deleted the administrator account on my XP box leaving only a guest account. I stuck around because Neowin was the only site to produce a solution and then I discovered the SD&A forum. It took me a while to realize that BPN is where I would grow and even longer to discover that we had a front page where I could be most useful :p edit: damn typos the google search that introduced neowin to me: japan+eq i look forward to absorbing your flames and converting them to sustainable insults Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gio Takahashi Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 If memory serves, I found this site when I was looking for news/info on when Windows Vista was under development in its earlier phase, aka Longhorn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mystic Mungis Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Someone had your rss feed on their page and I always found the articles really interesting so when I stopped using the site I started using Neowin directly :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan~ Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 I believe I had a problem with my PC, as did someone else on the forum. Someone posted the fix and it worked for me, then pretty much hung around :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyfrog Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 I don't remember which tech site it was but I remember reading about Neowin launching and I've been coming here ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catilley1092 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I was looking for an answer to an issue, using Google, and ran across the forum. Seems that I've seen it before, but not 100% positive. All that matters now is that I found it. Seems to be a large forum, hopefully I can find a home here. Cat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

way2quik Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 No idea how I found Neowin. If I was asked this a couple years ago I may have remembered. Probably a google search of some sort led me here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
