Â*Â* so I'm trying to migrate all the thingds I do in XP to the Win7

since it keeps locking up . Anybody else here used this combo and had
problems ? Any solutions ? I'm moving it all over to 7 because so
much just won't function in XP any more . There are a few thing I
prefer XP for , so I plan on keeping is as a backup OS , just trying
to get as much moved over as I can and email/newsgroups are a primary
task for my desktop . It's a pain in the ass to keep rebooting when I
want to change over .

Try these guys:

mozilla.support.thunderbird

Â* The Win7 install is in a nearly-new 500 Gb hdd - I had some music
stored on it before I re-purposed it . The motherboard is also new , the
old one still functioned but was not Win7 compatible . Everything works
just swell in XP , though the T-bird version here is 52.something and
it's a little slow sometimes . I'm wondering if I need to step back to
an earlier version ... or if I need to dump T-bird and go with another
email/newsgroup client . Anybody using Outlook ?

Unless something changed, it works well with W7 and now W10. If nothing
else, try removing and reinstalling.
