[QUOTE=Aurum;419506]I was able to register but I'm not able to log into the account:[/QUOTE]

I had exactly the same first time. My feeling is the Intel forum requires a very stable and smooth internet connection, but I could be wrong.

[QUOTE=ATH;419502]Maybe you can write a detailed explanation to them?[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=tha;419500]I got troubles registering too, but eventually had it registered.[/QUOTE]

Just as an experiment, I tried registering on their forum...

1. First of all, I had to enable Javascript before the "Register Now" button would work.

2. The form then rejected my password because it was ***too long***!

2.1. I tend to use passphrases rather than passwords. (WTF!!!!)

2.2. The form than rejected my password four times because it didn't match their exact requirements.

2.3. I had to answer their "captcha" each time before submission was possible.

3. Finally the form responded with "Please active your account by confirming your email address. We just sent an email to [redacted]. Simply click the link in the email.

I gave my primary email address.

I'm still awaiting the promised email, even while checking my spam folder....

[QUOTE]I'm still awaiting the promised email, even while checking my spam folder.... [/QUOTE]Same here. I never received the promised email @Gmail. I switched to outlook.com and received the promised email within a few seconds. After that I verified the account. But I'm still not able to log into the account.

EDIT: Seems as if someone changed my avatar?!

[QUOTE=chalsall;419528]I'm still awaiting the promised email, even while checking my spam folder....[/QUOTE]

OK. An update...

I got the promised email. It then asked me to confirm the email address again by clicking on a link.

I did so.

It then replied and said something like "Welcome to the community".

I then tried to access Henk_NL's post and Intel site said "Intel Communities uses a Display Name to identify users and their content when they participate in the community. Display Names are permanent and cannot be changed in the future. Please choose a Display Name which other members will see when you participate in Intel Communities.

I then entered into the "Display Name:" field my real name: "Chris Halsall" and clicked "Update".

The form then came back to me with (in red letters) "Invalid username. Usernames must start with a letter. Allowed characters are A-Z, 0-9, _, @, - (dash), and .(dot).

Hmmmm....

I can screen-capture any of these if desired. But Intel, I think you have a problem....

OK, just for documentation purposes, here is the screenshot.

Note that I conditionally run Javascript. This might be part of the problem.

It may disallow spaces.

You should try Chris_Halsall ...

EDIT: Mark was faster ^^

[QUOTE=Mark Rose;419535]It may disallow spaces.[/QUOTE]

Thanks. That was it (or maybe a human got involved).

Spaces not allowed in a display name? That's just stupid.

[QUOTE=Aurum;419536]You should try Chris_Halsall ...[/QUOTE]

Yeah. That's what I ended up doing, and it worked.

BTW, having your avatar changed by the "Gods" is a badge of honor! :smile:
