Been so long since I used WoW Add-ons, Make sure when you login to click on
Addons in the lower left corner, make sure all the addons you put in are up
to date and checked. If the addons are out of date you'll have to find newer
versions or check that box at the top that says load em anyways and hope
they don't mess up your game too much.

WoW has it's own forums, you might search there for help. This forum is for
more like, "The game doesn't work, help me."

Andy,
Thanks for the input. Add-ons in the lower left hand corner when the game
comes on isn't there yet. XP picks it up but vista has been giving me alot of
trouble. i'm new with vista and theres where it begins:-) I have seen the
forum on wow .it's just going to take some time but i'm still looking for the
best way to install them.. Thanks again

I've installed a coord's add-on to two different systems a Vista 64 and a
Vista32 and both worked. I see the add-on option at the user screen and in
game as well.

In my case, just like under XP. I have to have the files at the root of the
add-on folder and then the add-on folder in the add on tree.

so my add on is called Suki_MiniMapCoords

I have those files in

\WoW\interface\addons

and then I have the folder it came in like this

\WoW\Interface\AddOns\Suki_MiniMapCoords

Without that folder there, I don't get the option for add-ons.

Not sure how other add-ons work, but that is what is required for mine to
work under XP or Vista

You where right on target! Thank you for your time on this matter :-)
