This is a FAQ explaining how. I will start with the basics. Search can be found here, here, and here. It's also the second link from the right under "Esato Donors", yes - the one that reads "search" Now, say you want to search for all the new things you don't yet know about T610. You can't just search after "all the things I don't yet know about the T610" (here is the result, by the way ) When you are using the search you have to choose some keywords (hopefully correctly spelled), then enter them with no "and" or "or" or punctuation marks. For example if you want to search after themes for you T610, don't write "themes for my T610, please!". Instead write "Themes T610" (results) Here is some more examples Can't be bothered to search I searched but didn't find anything use the search ..and finally service menu _________________ If I had all the answers, I wouldn't have any questions.

PM, WWW	Posted: 2003-10-22 18:24 also if you're searching to see if anyone has posted a webpage i.e about P900 software, don't search for the webpage address you've found (www.p900software.com) search for "P900 software". I learnt this the hard way . Hope this make sense. * No questions asked *

Find another post by yourself, and click on the little profile button at the bottom of your post. You can then find a button that says "Find posts from this user". It lists ALL your posts, and you might be able to find your post! If you cant find it in that list, It's probably been deleted, and therefore theres no need to post the same thing again, because for some reason or another, the mods didnt want your crappy post about p800/p900 warez on thier forums. :ink p800:: :urple t630:: ::The Brick::

But after practise you can soon learn the quirks of the search and make very good use of it! ALso don't forget if a topic interests you, you can bookmark so you can find it easy again later without the need for a search!

PM, WWW	Posted: 2003-10-22 19:31 how do you search for words that are excluded e.g. i want to find out what tracker 3 is, but when i search "3" is excluded and so is "what". do i search for tracker 3 in speach marks e.g. "tracker 3"? thanx * No questions asked *

I use the google toolbar addon in internet explorer and with that you can search the current site you are looking at using google and often that can get the results you want. If you haven't got that go here to get it! Unless I'm very much mistaken... A-ZoTT
