Oldest one I could find was 7/2000. I would like to see an archive from the UBB boards. I've been an anandtech member for a long time. I want to say '97 or so? (Not sure when the site started.)

Hi there everybody,

I decided to create an account here at anandtech and post and see if anyone else had run into this problem and/or knows where to start.

Yesterday, after playing Giants for awhile and having a lot of problems with slowness in-game I decided to update to directx8 on my win2k box. This went all well and good, I rebooted and my machine was still in 1 piece. Then I went and updated my Det drivers from 618 to 631, rebooted and the sh*t hit the fan. It would allow me to login but about 4 seconds after logging into my win2k box it would come to a complete halt...

That was when I learned about Fast Write and how much it gimps my system.

I joined a month before the archive's oldest date :(
no clue what my first post was...probably in GH.

Umm... there must be something weird about the search engine. Can anyone else who joined in Oct 1999 find their posts from that time? I can only find something as early as July 2000, and I know that isn't right. I'd been posting since UBB. *shrug*
