no I've not had that problem, but I have had this wierd problem that I don't know what to do about. When I upgraded to winamp 5.24 I get this issue some times where i go to fast forward through a file, and winamp hangs up and makes this absolutely horible noise and won't stop unless I restart the whole system. Does anyone else have this problem and know what I can do about it? Brandon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wes Derby" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.
