[Uncle Vinnie]

Odd, I am unable to find a newsgroup for Windows Vista.. Anyone know of one?
Maybe it's my server?

Thank you!

Start utilizing news.microsoft.com as your newsgroup for Microsoft help...
Then you can list and subscribe appropriately.

There are many, with names beginning with microsoft.public.windows.vista...

Maybe it's my server?

If you can't find them, yes, it's very likely that your server doesn't carry
them. Get them at the news server msnews.microsoft.com, which is a better
source of Microsoft newsgroups (including this one) anyway.

And if you are not aware of it, let me point out that Outlook Express (which
I see that you are using) handles multiple news servers without a problem.

Thanks All! At one point I had MS's server for MS groups but since my
server had the ones I frequented, I put them all under one..

Curious - what's the difference between news.microsoft.com and
msnews.microsoft.com?

thanks again!

Two letters...
They are both proper names for "207.46.248.16"...
