Well I dont want to sound rude, But I gave up.

I cant post anything at work, they use IE7 or something, and I can log in and everything, but wont let me type anything.

Tried like 10 times.

Also dont like the new layout, sorry, but seems worse than before.


You need to tell IE to use compatibility mode, one of the other threads about the site has got details on how to do this.

Hi Canada

 

Yep you need to download IE8 and then do the compatibility mode thing here are the instructions and where to get the download:

http://www.whathifi.com/forum/about-the-new-site/important-notice-internet-explorer-users

 

It takes about 15 minutues to download and then you need to re-boot.

 

By the way Whathifi, since i have been using IE8 it has worked perfectly so far.

Cheers

RE: Home cinema

If all else fails, youu can always click the "Diable rich-text" option, like I have to on my iPad, that seems to get round most issues.

Oh yes, welcome back plain ol' gel Smile

RE: Home cinema

The name changes since the new site is slightly perplexing.

Can I have mine changed to the "plastic mushroom man". Let's face it I'm always kept in the dark and everyone keeps flinging muck at me...LOL
