As you may have seen in this forum, there are a fair amount of topics being locked or deleted, with given reasons.
The main reason for this is because there have been alot of Windows Vista technical support queries (setup/troubleshooting etc...)
These forums are for software development only - not technical support. The correct links to place your question are usually given in a reply.
As well as this, it must be noted that these annoucements/sticky's must be read to prevent any misunderstanding/frustration on both parties/sides. It must also be noted that any abuse is not tolerated on these forums and must be kept at a professional manner.
And for the Windows Vista support has ended, more detail please refer the link below:
it covers on where to obtain technical support for Windows Vista.
Thank-you
