I updated Winamp, and now I can't play .mpg It'll just play the first few seconds of audio, with no video, then stop. Winamp then feezes (not responding).

:wtf:

Go here and click download: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/ACE ... S_Pack.htm

Install that program, and everything should work fine. :mrgreen:

Ok, so, here it goes ...

I just got a new computer for the upcoming school year. But, I have a about 1000 mp3 files on my mother's desktop that are also on my iPod. What is the best & quickest way to get them transfered onto my new computer? There are just so many of them?

Anyone?

ANYONE!?

Can you just plug the iPod into the new computer, and transfer the songs over?

Josh told me how to add my old drive(with all my boots) to my new pc.

I still have no idea how to do it. :*)**

Yeah, adding the harddrive with all the files to the new computer temporarily while you transfer them would be the fastest way... but don't do that unless you know a bit about computers. :lol:

Other than that, Robbo's idea sounds good to me.

I don't think it works that way.

I'll have to look into it further , I suppose.

You can try using CopyPod .. http://www.copypod.net/bin/CopyPod_v7.61.exe .. That's the best one I could find.

The only downside is it extracts your songs in a format of "Artist - Album - Song" so you might have to do a bit of renaming :cry:

Maybe burn them to a dvd or cd and transfer them over?

As long as it doesn't change the ID3 tags, that's not a huge deal.

Where can one download a copy of Windows Classic Player?

nikki4982 · Post by **nikki4982** » 8/17/2005, 1:25 am

You mean Media Player Classic?

Or do you actually want old school WMP?

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 8/17/2005, 8:13 am

ummm, I'm not too sure now. I used to have it because I was having trouble with winamp and such.

:think:

Axtech · Post by **Axtech** » 8/17/2005, 8:38 am

That would be Media Player Classic.
