Four and Twenty 0 Posted March 6, 2001 I run winXP 2428 for a while and then all the sudden winamp gives this error about not being able to read the file format of my mp3s which are perfectly fine. Also there is no sound in the rest of the system after this happens until i restart. Very strange problem. ALl the mp3s are coming off of my 76.3 gig maxtor. ------------------ My System Dell Demension XPS T500 Triple Boot Windows 2000 Pro 2195 Windows Whistler Pro 2428 Windows Millennium Final Retail PIII @ 500 Mhz (with after market heatsink and dual fan) 512 Megs Ram Guillemot Maxi Gammer Cougar (TNT2 M64 w/ 32 Megs of RAM) Matrox Millennium PCI (w/ 4 Megs of RAM for second monitor) 3Com Etherlink XL 10/100 Ethernet Card 2 x Abit Hot Rod Pro ATA-100 RAID Controlers 2 x 12.6 Gig Maxtor Hard Disks RAID 0 (for system) 1 76.3 Gig Maxtor Hard Disk (for storage) 40X LG CD Rom Drive 100 Mb Iomega Internal Zip Drive MS Explorer Mouse MS Natural Keyboard Pro Share this post Link to post
bug_666 0 Posted March 6, 2001 must be that new feature to stop you fron listening to 'pirated' music or something. Share this post Link to post
Four and Twenty 0 Posted March 6, 2001 **** if that is really what it is that sucks *** . It only happens after playing winamp for awhile. and i have alot of piratesd music on my hard drive Share this post Link to post
ThC 129 0 Posted March 6, 2001 no its not a tactic to stop from listening to pirated music. It is probably a driver issue or something...i listen to winamp and leave it running 24/7 not playing media all that time but i have never seen this problem you describe. Share this post Link to post
Four and Twenty 0 Posted March 6, 2001 It is ok 2446 is out now and i can try to get that with a little help from my friends. Share this post Link to post
jsmame 0 Posted March 8, 2001 I've been censored by MS. Windows media player will work on all my MP3's but if I use winamp then I get booted to an internet site saying I don't have licenses. Sounds to me like MS is trying to force us to use only their player. Same old tactics. Share this post Link to post
jdulmage 0 Posted March 8, 2001 nope, it's your illegal, w4r3z cd keys that are blocking all of it, kinda like a reduced mode. quit stealing then Share this post Link to post
bug_666 0 Posted March 9, 2001 that's a great reason to use winxp-now ppl won't even bother downloading it. JD, quit starting flame wars already. Share this post Link to post

JBrave715 0 Posted March 9, 2001 jdulmage Senior Member Posts: 783 Registered: Oct 2000 haha, truth hurts doesn't it? too bad I had to tell you it? too bad I had to tell you it>> How is that the truth? You just claimed that the CD key was the problem and called him a thief without providing any facts.. This IS a beta OS remember and that IS a fact... And you're right your posts will never stopped being snapped at unless you stop making uncalled for personal attacks at people. But I doubt you will stop because that's exactly what you want... I'm not sure what your motive is though do you like to argue and/or be the board clown or do you just wanna see how many posts you can get maybe you're going for 1,000 posts? Either way you are doing a fantastic job! Share this post Link to post
