Re: irritating microsoft products that dont work together?


Also, who specifically did you speak with at Dell? If you give me their
contact information, I will follow up with them. That seems like you dealt
with someone who had not done their research.

I too have the same WMP11 playback problem and I have a new Dell Dimension
PC with WMP 11 loaded. A single mp3 plays fine but more than one and there
is a cut out 7/8ths of the way into each song and then the final song will
play fine!

I have loaded the Sigma Tel driver update as mentioned earlier on these
pages but that has made no difference.

I was given shortshrift by Microsoft when i caleld them and told to speak
to Dell who then informed me that this is a Windows Vista/WMP11 issues and
they have been plagued with this problem. they also explained that i
should either get WinAmp or wait for Microsoft to sort this out as it was
their problem!

So who is right? Dell or Microsoft? And just who is going to sort out this
silly irritating (see previous users question in forum)where one microsoft
product doesn't work with another!?

I am fairly sure that it did work ok when i got the machine and that in
actual fact there was an update loaded from microsoft that has royally
screwed things up!!! Comment?
