How did you find Neowin?

[SoCalRox]

I found the site when it was fairly new, but didn't register for the forums until later. Lost my profile name, and re-registered a bit later.

I needed help with Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, i build a new computer and purchased the software to install on the system. I could not get Media Center to work at all, so i took to the internet to find a solution and came across Neowin.

After taking my newly built system to a computer shop, and them installing drivers for my TV Tuner card and charging ?40 for the privilage, i sought info from Neowin and deiscovered i needed a decent Graphics Card for Media Center to work properly, once i did this i had all of the bells and wistles and i was then a proud user of Media Center Edition 2005.

From this website i started to hate, and now they suck, so i came over here.

Long time ago I googled "Windows forum" and this was the first thing that popped up.

I stumbled onto Neowin searching for a solution for sound stuttering problem I had in my computer.

Clicked on a link to neowin and liked what I saw

By using Google

[cork1958]

Can't vote as the only search engine you listed is Google. I don't think Google was even around when I found this place!! Even if it was, I didn't use it much then and still don't!

Probably found it through http://www.altavista.com/ search though.

Through google, I was looking for different things and at least on three searches it came on first page and I said, oh this must be an interesting forum, and joined :)

I was looking through Wikipedias list of the the biggest Forums, and Neowin was the only one using IP. Board.

For me, IP. Board > all Forum Software so I had to sign up. :)

Hi ,

I joined to see if I could get some answers that I don't seem to be able to find anywhere else.

Long-time JCXP visitor here, and when that wonderful site went down I simply stopped forum-ing. I ended up reading the Front Page of Neowin for a while recently and I guess the forum itself seemed solid enough, so I bit the bullet.

[BeerFan]

I found it odd.

But i came back.

While searching "the 11 most beautiful news reporters" or something to that effect...

If I remember it was linked to by an article by Digital Dave over on the old win98central.com

I had a prior account from 2002-ish but I didn't end up liking the name so I made a new one.

[OOOOOOOO]

Yup yup...was gonna mention part of the Magic Key, but didn't know if anyone would hit the panic button...

I remember that :D lol

[:: Lyon ::]

Ugh..good question.. I forgot where I knew Neowin from but to me, it's the best tech community out there. It looks great, there are plenty of threads, and admins don't just ban you like they want to show their power off :(

[am0nrahx]

I voted Google but I really found it via StumbleUpon. I stayed because I saw the amount of forums and that you had a tech and game section!

[alexanderiza]

I found them through the search engine..hehe

[garychencool]

I found this forum on Wikipedia. I was getting bored and wanted to go to a different forum.

[habeascoffee]

I was reading a story posted by Violetblue about how Neowin's Facebook page had been shuttered. She mentioned that it was a pretty worthy news site so I gave it a look. I'm impressed with what I've seen. Enough so, that I joined the forums. :) It was part "EFF YOU!" to Facebook and the ass-hat that created the issues there, and partly my interest in computers that drove me to check out the community.

Cheers to everyone!

:pint:

I found Neowin via Google. I was looking for a site that brings me technology news, because I wasn't satisfied with the sites I was currently visiting for these kind of news and forums. I've been visiting this site for a good while now, but only until now, I decided to become a part of the community.

[garychencool]

I didn't find Neowin, Neowin found me! :laugh:

[ipeters61]

I noticed that a lot of the time when I looked for information about technology, I landed on Neowin. It seemed to be an accepting and well-rounded community, so I figured I'd join in!

[CoLdFuSi0n]

I found this site way back in the the early days when someone was spamming it on a dalnet IRC channel.
