Whenever I try to do a search in the attic I get a "website not responding." Nothing seems to work I have tried different search terms etc. What could be the problem? I am trying to find and old thread about transferring old 8mm home movies to video or dvd. Any help would be appreciated!

I, too, am having no end of trouble with the search function. I do not know what is wrong, but perhaps an email to the boss will help. I will try that.

The Attic is pretty large (200+ MB) and takes a while to search. If you search during early morning or later in the evening you will find it responds more quickly than during the day, when it can get bogged down with traffic.

The 8mm topic is here:
