| | RE: Fax I too miss having the faxing option in Vista Home Premium. I read somewhere that it was to be included in the SP1 upgrade, but I have installed SP! and no faxing ability.

| Vista Home Premium 64 bit | Re: Fax Sad to say the fax program is not included in Vista Home Premium or with SP1. Only the business version or Ultimate has the fax program. |

| | Re: Fax I downloaded Snappysoftware.com. and it held hostage a program I needed. I had to uninstall it, then restart, then find where it really did not uninstall and REALLY had to uninstall it then restart it, before it would let me open my excel document again. I was on pins and needles as the document was work related. At this time I would not recommend snappysoftware. I wish they would just put in the fax, I have already written them. What about this fax software? http://www.rkssoftware.com/mightyfax/overview.html it looks good. Has anyone tried it? "Bob F." wrote: " I’ve used all of these.

| | Re: Fax This is all true. Why didnt Microsoft tell us about this in the first place? I was on the phone with Dell almost an hour. They tried to get my Vista Home version to send faxes. Nothing worked. The modem works fine. If Microsoft wants to remove features in Vista Home Preimum that XP had they could at least tell us about it. Tell Dell about it too. Their tecks - at least a few - didnt know about this.

| | Re: Fax From what I hear, it seems MOST people didnt know Microsoft removed the fax feture in Windows Vista Home Basic Preimum that was available in Windows XP. And there is nothing in the help section that tells you about it. "br" wrote: Quote: > This is all true.
