jdulmage 0 Posted September 23, 2000 I bet you nobody will figure this out, but here it goes. I have installed Windows Media Player 7 build 1956 on my system, and when I have the playlists showing, the visualization freezes up when I minimize it and maximize it again, it freezes for about 10 seconds, then everything appears again, it's a major pain in the ass to work with. I have tried reinstalling everything, from WMP7 to as far as reinstalling the operating system, but nothing seems to fix it. Earlier builds (ie. the build that comes with Windows Me) seems to work just fine. Any ideas?? If you don't have an idea, give me a good music player that plays mp3, midi and wav good. WinAmp?? don't even mention Winamp, because it plays all my songs in 2 channel, when WMP7 plays them all in 4 channel. Thank you ------------------ ------------------------- Because I can..... ------------------------- Share this post Link to post
loki 0 Posted September 24, 2000 all i can say is wmp7 is a huge resource hog, that might be the problem. When I had it, oh man was it bad. Share this post Link to post

bobbinbrisco 0 Posted September 28, 2000 just turn off the visualizations, it's annoying anyways. or try winamp it's alot smaller and uses alot less resources, just as powerful as media7 in SOME aspects. ------------------ 2 Computers both have : Intel SE440BX2 Pentium III 700Mhz (100) LS-120 120 Mb (100MHz) Fujitsu 17.3 GB Ultra DMA 66/10.2 GB Ultra DMA 66 Mitsubihi 50X IDE Creative Vibra PCI 128bit Matrox Millenium G400 16Mb AGP/Diamond Speedstar 8Mb AGP Bay Netgear 10/100PCI Medium ATX Tower case 120W Multimedia MS INternet KB (PS2) MS Win2000 Pro Share this post Link to post
