Your choice of subject line alone shows some people that you missed some small details from the posting guide. The ability to notice small details may be important for you to demonstrate in future. Any answer in this thread is unlikely to be found by a topic search on subject lines alone since "speed" is a single word.
One fast way to increase your reputation is to contribute. You now have an opportunity. If you follow Jim's good advice, discover the answer for yourself, and post it back to the group, changing the subject line so that its easier for others to find in future, thats one way you can contribute and increase your reputation. If you don't do that, thats your choice. It is entirely up to you. Whatever action you take next, even doing nothing is an action, it is visible in public for everyone to search back and find out within seconds.
