Also please please do a bit of vague scanning of titles (or even posts, if you're feeling ambitious) to see if there's an existing thread for your particular problem, or even if the problem you've got has been discussed and a satisfactory solution arrived at. Don't start a new thread if there's one already, at least on the first page.
That'll make it so much easier for use to generate a FAQ, and it saves everyone the confusion and horror of Merged Threads.
