:mad: I had to create this account because the site won't let me log in as nitrox28. I keep getting a "....You have entered an invalid username or password. Please press the back button, enter the correct details and try again. Don't forget that the password is case sensitive. Forgotten your password?..." message. I know my nitrox28 username is correct and so is the password. This all started right after the site upgrade (which looks great by the way!). I've deleted my cookies, deleted my temp internet files, deleted my history, turned off my popup blocker etc. I also tried signing on at work and couldn't do it there either. Could a mod or someone please help me out? THANKS! My e-mail addresses are nitrox28@insightbb.com nitrox28@gmail.com nitrox28@hotmail.com :mad:

And then edit it back to your "OLD" password if desired.

But I can't sign in under my old username without my old password. I guess it's not really that big of a deal.

Yes you can. There's a "Forgot your passwod?" link on here, and it will e-mail you your new password, as long as you remember the e-mail the original account was under.

Vin.....I tried that twice actually. I never got an e-mail :( No biggie.

If you are using a hotmail account, you might want to check your "Junk Mail" folder. For some reason, mine went there. I honestly don't know why, but it did. If that ain't it, uhh...err...I don't know. It's unfortunate, updating is never a smooth process. I have used Win2000 since it came out, and I absolutely refuse to switch to XP or ME because of the differences and I know I'll lose some stuff in the process. Good luck.

Send me an email or Private Message with the password you want for your old account and I will set it for you.

Thanks vinvega
That's exactly where Hotmail was sending the info--Thought I had been "banned"for some unknown reason for a while!!
