Windows Media Player 9 - Encoding WMAs

adamvjackson
OK, I'm impressed. . . I just encoded a full CD (about 40 mins of audio) at the highest quality VBR from within Windows Media Player 9, and it only took a total of 1:46 to copy and encode the full CD!.

IE6 When is it ever going to be fixed?

Curley_Boy
It seems MS security patches increasingly break things more than fix bugs these days (Windows 2000 SP3 was what finally prompted me to upgrade to XP). Take IE6 as an example here are few of the issues that I (and quite a few others seem to be having): '.

bytemangler
Just a general question. Where does windows2000 kept the cookie files that remember your username when you go into a web site. For example when I log into this forum I type the first letter of my id name and the name pop up.

Can Corel PhotoPaint 8.0 Save .RLE images?

Christianb
Hi I don't have Color PhotoPaint 8 installed, because I'm not terribly crazy about the program, but I'm wondering is it able to save. RLE images? I would rather use. RLEs in my visual basic applications than normal.

Great software technology combined with Intel new CPU stuff!

Mr.Guvernment
is all good and stuff - but it is still physically 1 cpu - and as someone else said when u are cranking that cpu at like %90 - hyperthreading ain't gonna do jack for yeah - also other reviews have show that hyperthreading may actually slow down other applications.

Saving your setting... takes very long time

Stoffer
The last couple of days my windows 2000 fully updated have started to become very slow at shutting down. It just stands at saving your settings for about a minute or 2. Anyone know about away to make this go faster.

Unable to preview jpegs in left pane within folder.

videobruce
I lost the ability of previewing jpegs in the left pane of a folder under the folder name. I'm running 2k. Bitmaps can be previewed! I do have active destop disabled, but I did turn it on to see if it made any difference, but it didn't.

Icons? Maybe not....

Anyone know an easy way to make all my folders have icons viewed and not tiles. Those big things scare me, I like the old windows style icon. .
