I cant seem to find a correct place for these questions.
Is there a section dedicated to Millenium operating system.
I have been using a test machine to learn what can and cannot be done on this operating system.
My current problem is to get cda files to use other applications besides the windows multimedia player version 7 or 8 to work.
I am familiar with editing file associations, changing application preferences. None of these options have led me to get winamp or any other program besides windows media player to play a cd.
The other applications seem to be playing the files but there is no sound.
The reason for needing the change:
Although I have plenty of ram, free disk space, (defragged,scanned drive for errors, clearing temp,cache files) and also increasing buffer in audio properties I still get stuttering when playing cd’s using the player.
Directx has also been upgraded to 8 and problems persist.
If I use a 4mb sonic sound card or the chipset built in(ess1869)the problem is still present. I have no problems with playing any other format such as mp3 files.
No stuttering.
It doesnt seem to matter if I use a 50 speed cdrom or 8 speed. Write behind caching has been enabled,disabled on removeable drives.
If anyone has been testing this os and has a work around I would like to hear from you.
