Hey ZTrang, do I get bumped to the top of the list for making this bumper sticker?

:p That's a very nice bumper sticker, but no; otherwise I'd have hundreds of people making anti-Kerry paraphernalia, and as funny as that would be, it wouldn't be fair. Just wait your turn, and we'll get to you ;)

The latest invite list. Note that since I can't edit my posts forever, I'll have to keep making new posts with the updated lists; so, know that the "next up" link on the first page won't always be up-to-date. We'll do our best to continue updating the link so that donors can quickly donate their invites.

I wrote a small web application that would make the queue a lot clearer... Though I don't have a place to host it.

All I need is very little space, php support and a mysql database.

If anyone wants to host it, be sure to send a PM my way ;)

EDIT: looks something like this: http://66.74.201.59/list.php

go easy on it though, it's my home cable connection.

Will YOU be the one to add 47 pages worth of names to the list? :whistle:

Since I don't want to go through all 18+ 40 posts-per-page pages to see if this has been mentioned (although I did see a few comments saying basically the same thing), I just thought I'd drop a little note here about the rules. The 5 month member is great, but the bit about 300 or more posts (of course this would since I haven't reached that yet) is what I personally think is a little sad. Just because someone doesn't post every day, or every week for that matter (this is probably my first post in months), that shouldn't exclude them. I've yet to reach 200 posts let alone 300, but I've been here for over two years. I visit Neowin on average 4 times per day, every day, but because I don't post a lot it excludes me from this? Not that I want in or anything, or that I would refuse an invite if given, I'm just expressing my views on how the post limit rule is unfair for those members like myself prefer to lurk rather than post. Now if it was by seniority I would have nothing to complain about, even if there were 2000 people ahead of me, as it wouldn't mean I'd have to post in topics that a) questions have been answered, b) my opinion would cause a flamewar, c) just to add another comment praising something when 200 other people have, and I could go on. Besides, it isn't all about the number of posts, but the quality of posts. Isn't it? That's just my two cents.

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
    • I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
