Yup much easier if you have a bad link in your sig just ADD rig before the ID=***

Like you for example? :laugh:

EDIT: http://www.anandtech.com/myanandtech.aspx?member=136070

http://www.anandtech.com/mysystemrig.aspx?rigid=26748

both of those work.

Both of those work for me too.

One takes you to his page and the other directly to his computer, right?

But the one in his sig takes you to the login page, right?

The URL you copy are like these

http://www.anandtech.com/mysystemrig.aspx?id=26748

The URL should be modified in your sig so id == rigid

http://www.anandtech.com/mysystemrig.aspx?rigid=26748


mine is like this http://www.anandtech.com/mysystemrig.aspx?rigid=29446

its werd because i followed those steps.

so did http://www.anandtech.com/mysystemrig.aspx?rigid=31213

lots of people still have bad links in their sigs.

I think part of the problem is the directions actually tell you the wrong way to do it now :(

The links given in the bottom of the rig pages are acutally the ones that don't work.
