Silent-IQ 0 Posted January 22, 2001 winamp 2.72 but doesnt matter coz i have same problem with all other version also, it doesnt happen all the time but once it starts it wont stop! well i dont have that much hard driver..only 3...one 27.3 ATA66,one 60Gb ATA100 and one 46Gb ATA100....thats all...i was to lasy to write them down.. Thanx for your help...that still remains! Share this post Link to post
ThC 129 0 Posted January 22, 2001 hmm well as far as i can tell its probably one of 3 problems. A motherboard/HD conflict problem which would cause winamp to f-up if its always trying to load files. A DMA problem with your drives or just a plain motherboard problem. I dont think it is software but im not sure, it doesnt seem like a driver problem either, so im guessing it has to be a conflict caused by your motherboard and hard drives. At least that is the only conclusion i can come up with. Share this post Link to post
