This info pinched from a Vista group:

a.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.general
b.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.administration_acco unt_passwords
c.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.file_management
d.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.hardware_devices
e.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.installation_setup
f.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.mail
g.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.networking_sharing
h.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.performance_mainten ance
i.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.print_fax_scan
j.. microsoft.public.windows.vista.security
k..microsoft.public.windows.vista.music_pictures_v ideo

Head on over to the following page at Microsoft's website on how to
configure your
newsreader to read Microsoft's Public Newsgroups:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/e...roupsetup.mspx

So if you issues, questions or want to comment and discuss concerning
Windows Vista BETA 2, you know where to go.

Since you are using OE and connecting to msnews server
you may be able to see them by pressing Ctrl-w and typing
c.w s.v

BTW you may have to Reset your list of newsgroups before
getting a match with the above pattern.

Thank you for the reply. However, my msnews.microsoft.com is set up
otherwise I would not have access to this newsgroup! It does not matter how
many times I try I cannot get any of the Vista newsgroups, although I can
get all the xp ones. How do you explain that?
