Rob Roy Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Can anyone tell me please how to get Windows 7/Google Chrome to recognise this Forum properly? I can't find a compatibility button to use as I had with 'normal' Google. Posting comes up with a box to write in and no smileys (!) and when I use the quote button I get all the gobbledegook instead of the proper box.

Rob Roy Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 Thanks for the suggestions. I've now got the IE Tab but the bl**dy thing won't let me log on! I give up, life's too short to keep trying to make it work This forum is the only one I've had trouble with, and reading the thread below I wasn't alone.
