A while back I was playing with some network drives and for a few reasons I moved my burner from d: to e:. After that, iTunes keeps giving me a "Disk burner or software not found". I tried moving the drive back to d: and that didn't work and have uninstalled/reinstalled iTunes. In advanced>burning it sees my burner correctly.
I've done everything I can think of and can't figure it out.
P.S. - If anyone knows of a media player on windows that has a weighted shuffle playback (a la party shuffle in iTunes) that would solve my problem. Only reason I still have iTunes.
JetAudio is my favorite media player

I used burnquick for years but My DVD burner was unsupported and the copy of nero it came with was very slow this Burnaware is the best all around burning software I have used in some time.
No Adware either.

this is just a guess that maybe when the printer and or shredder is activated it grabs System resources and does not let go when done. Or the keyboard priority is set lower than the printer.
just a few thing I would check however remote it might be.

Its Advent.
Its not the ISP making the lag because we play on other PC's using the same network. Thanks for the help guys.
The only suggestion that can be given is to access the bios and increase you GPU resouces if it is not already max'd out.
If you were using XP you could have used a program called Game XP to make it easier to shut down background processes that eat sys resources during game play.
i sugest you create a user account with stripped down background proceses just for gaming. It may help some. As metioned in another post most Laptop are not designed for Graphics performance but you should be able to play WOW fairly decent I believe if you kill the background stuff.
Also find out exactly what your Specs are and max out the RAM if you can (may not be necessary if you kill the resource hogs during gaming).

Internet Broadband
this ones simple:
this is for broad band connections. I didn’t try it on dial up but might work for dial up.
1.make sure your logged on as actually "Administrator". do not log on with any account that just has administrator privileges.
2. start - run - type gpedit.msc
3. expand the "local computer policy" branch
4. expand the "administrative templates" branch
5. expand the "network branch"
6. Highlight the "QoS Packet Scheduler" in left window
7. in right window double click the "limit reservable bandwidth" setting
8. on setting tab check the "enabled" item
9. where it says "Bandwidth limit %" change it to read 0
reboot if you want to but not necessary on some systems your all done. Effect is immediate on some systems. some need re-boot. I have one machine that needs to reboot first, the others didn't. Don't know why this is.
This is more of a "counter what XP does" thing. In other words, XP seems to want to reserve 20% of the bandwidth for its self. Even with QoS disabled, even when this item is disabled. So why not use it to your advantage. To demonstrate the problem with this on stand alone machines start up a big download from a server with an FTP client. Try to find a server that doesn't max out your bandwidth. In this case you want a slow to medium speed server to demonstrate this. Let it run for a couple of minutes to get stable. The start up another download from the same server with another instance of your FTP client. You will notice that the available bandwidth is now being fought over and one of the clients download will be very slow or both will slow down when they should both be using the available bandwidth. Using this "tweak" both clients will have a fair share of the bandwidth and will not fight over the bandwidth.

so not sure if it works.

hi preston
welcome havent seen a post from you

[i wonder why this guy thinks it isnt a hardware problem
i had the same problem last year
and found my video card drivers were corrupt
and had to reinstall drivers
and it was restarting like his has been doing
that is what made me post.]
Hey Marty,
World of Warcraft has had me in it's evil grips but I really need to get back. What with vista out and me not know anything about it I though I should go where the water flow.
Here I know the water is good.
I'm not near the Ball park with Pete. But here is an analogy He might like. If I follow the big Dog around I might just get a few of his fleas.

The first place I look when I have a random reboot is Video card and RAM as Pete has pointed out. I keep a old PCI based Graphics card that Use to test this but not eveyone keep part lying around.
Update the drivers and see what that does. Switching the Ram in it's slots (this is rare but I have had it work before). Even removing on stick or the other for a test period may uncover something.
Also Powersupply, sags in power, spikes in power could all cause this but rare.
Never Rule out hardware as the cause.

Well after I got rid of the Bootleg XP copy she gave me the first go round and made buy a legit one.
isteve you are right about the intergrated card at the time of the post I had not actually seen the machine she had a local "MAC Expert" tell her the it was intergrated. Gotta watch those "experts".

A friend of mine bought a used Toshiba from a defunced company.
Toshiba A10-s177
XP Pro SP 2
512 MB RAM
40gig HDD
Pentium 4 2.2ghz
The Problem The system is slugish (I Have cleaned her out had a couple Trojans from the kid DLing)
with the low resources I figure Norton AV is doing it's number. This is setup to accept updates from a network server so I decided that removing it and installing a less resouce hungry AV would be better (I will be installing more RAM though). It is password protected so I cannot uninstall.
Since the company is nolonger around we cannot find the SA to ask him (as if he/she would remember).
Granted the best course of action would be to reinstall the OS but I have had trouble finding the drivers (came with no disks) for the components.
and really don't feel like giving anymore free time to this profit free project.
Question Does anyone know how to remove the password from Norton AV. I have the removal tool to run after the uninstall just need to get to that point.

My comment was not to slight M$ it was just a funny observation about the box considering what usually happens when M$ releases an OS. It was ment to be funny.

sofware wise too like the registry and that kind of stuff, just to check everythin is ok
10 reasons why you don't need Vista:
1. Requires a fairly Powerful Machine
2. Aplication Incompatibilities
3. Cazy Expensive
4. No Hardware Audio (MS remove some key gaming components like DirectSound 3D
so you will not be able to use features that require Hardware acceleration Like EAX)
5. Does not work with a lot of Bleeding-Bleeding Edge Hardware (Lie your USB MIC and Joy stick -port Based Thrustmaster Flight Stick)
6. Does not work well with some games (esspecially if you use Punkbuster you will need to run the game as Admin)
7. Includes consumer unfriendly DRM
8. Poor Driver Support
9. Kind Of Annoying (poorly executed attempt at User account control as pertaining to Software installation. MS's attempt at comtrolling Malware installs)
10. You Can Wait (Ask yourself if you need it. The only people who should say yes are people who already have Direct X 10 vid. cards and axiously awaiting thier Crysis preloaders everyone else wait until the bus are worked out)

Hope it helps someone

I loved this game at onetime
Gunz the Deul
http://gunzonline.com/
Wikipedia: GunZ: The Duel (Korean: 건즈 ë†듀얼), also known simply as GunZ or Gunz, is an online multiplayer third-person shooting game, created by South Korean-based MAIET Entertainment. International GunZ, in its beta, is currently free to play, and is planned to remain free after its official release. Though the International Edition is still in its beta stage, the Korean and Japanese versions are considered complete. The game allows players to perform exaggerated, gravity-defying action moves, including wall running, flipping, tumbling, and blocking bullets with swords, in the style of action movies and anime.
