Windows Media Player 10 MP3 playback problems

Posted: 01-12-2005, 06:45 PM
Has anyone experienced playback problems with their MP3s on WMP 10? When I
play songs out of my library, the MP3s will lock up and stop playing, my cpu
usage shoots up to 100 percent and I have to wait several seconds, at
minimum, for things to get back to normal. I have a sony vaio laptop, P4, 2.4
ghz with 512 mb ram. I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you in advance.

This is happening whether or not any other programs are running. My computer
is spyware/malware free and it has no viruses. Thanks.

Ok, maybe I wasn't clear. What processes do you have running in the
background at start up?

Start > Run > type in msconfg > OK > and choose Startup. see this site to
eliminate everything you don't need :
