Well, a warm hello and thanks for introducing yourself......
(you avatar might irritate some of the members here though)
About posting,.......when you are in a certain section, you should see a button that says "New Thread" at the left top corner. This one you can use to post about a problem that hasn't been discussed so far......(though most of the problems have already been addressed here)
In case you want to reply to a already existing thread, then you should see a button saying "Post Reply" also located at the left top corner of such a thread.
If you want/need to PM a member, you can do so by clicking on their user name in a post of theirs (on the left upper side of their post), or by double clicking their name in the list of the online members, which will lead you to their profile and from there you can send a PM.....
I hope that helps a bit.....
Cheers
