[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	Go into Regedit and then find the Run section and get rid of a number of TSRs like the ones from Creative and other programs which check to update their programs. -----signature----- I keep my eyes fixed on the sun! A change in feeling is a change in destiny.

	That won't speed up your internet. How much bandwidth do you think it takes to query a server and determine if there's a new update available? If you want to disable them, it's easier to go into msconfig's startup tab and uncheck every third party app you have in there, then reboot. It might increase boot times on older systems and it will return a small amount of memory for each app that you have with an auto-update feature. -----signature----- "Take the cheese to sickbay!"
