Frustrated. I Just Upgraded To 4.06 And Vista. Never Had Problems With Xp And 3.321. Now I Have The Lyrics Sweeping Very Slow. I Can't Dare To Run A Show Like That. I Did The Graphics Card Driver Update And It Didn't Work. But I Don't Have That Problem With Microstudio Playback Feature. It's Only With Hoster.

System Info. Laptop Hp Pavillion Dv6910us Amd Turion 64x2 3 Gb Ram, Nvidia Geforce 7150m With Up To 1071 Mb Shared Video Memory, 32 Bit Op. System, Vista Home Premium.

Does Someone Have Other Solutions. Please Help Me

Thank You

did you do all the recommended vista changes before you upgraded, and did you do all the custom updates..if so i think you can go click on tools, option and on the bottom left corner where it says player, try clicking back to old ( player ) see if that works..

Yes I Did It
 

Thank U Billyo. Yes I Did Upgrade But I Don't Remember If After Or Before Installing 4.06. If I Uninstall Hoster To Follow The Appropriate Steps Of Window Upgrade, Will I Lose My Imported Songs Or Not?
I Also Tried Changing The Player Too.
Billyo I Also Have Noticed That Only Happens With The Khpro Files Imported From The Hd. The Files Imported From Cd+g They Are Playedback Very Good. No Problem At All.
Thank U Anyway Billyo For Responding To My Post I Am Sure You Will Have The Solution For Me.

We have seen nothing but problems with integrated graphics. It seems Hoster just does not like sharing video memory. I don't know what to tell people anymore. MTU recommends 32mb of DEDICATED memory for graphics. I would recommend 128mb.

i dont think you'll lose your kma files, but i would recommend to have all your imported files to an ext. drive just in case, you should do all the custom updates and all the necessary vista changes before you install hoster back, songs imported from a hardrive would /should be converted to kma files, i'm not sure, since i havent tried importing songs from a hardrive, i always import songs from a cdg's..i am not sure if i have the solutions for your, i am merely just trying to give some recommendations.
good luck, and have a nice thanksgiving..

No Vista Changes Made
 

Thank U Billy'o. U Were Right. I Didn't Make All The Vista Changes Before Installing Hoster. I Uninstalled Hoster, Made The Changes In Vista And Is Running Good Now.

Thank U All U Guys That Replied To My Post.

I would get rid of Vista and go back to XP.
Thats what i did, Bob

you're welcome, i'm glad to hear that.

Why do people keep suggesting this as a solution? Microsoft is abandoning further support or updates of XP as early as June of 2009.

Hey Deeter,
XP is a stable operating system like Windows 98. I know folks (not Hoster users :w) who still use Windows 98. Some businesses I know of still use DOS, YUK :e BUT IT'S STABLE.

Vista is soon to join the ranks of Windows 2000 and Windows Me as operating systems that were never stable and were dropped by the public. When we get a good OS, we hang on to it. Let's pray that Windows 7 which should be out next year is stable.

This is my take on it.

i dont think he's suggesting that, you may read it that way, but the fact is hoster runs better with xp without all the problems and dont have to do a lot of changes just needed some custom updates, not like vista

And Microsoft will soon be abandoning Vista Support after they release another service pack for it to make it run more like XP.:e Then when they release Windows 7 (yet another new OS) early next year they will abandon Vista. As long as the Department of Defense and large companies hang on to XP which many are doing, Microsoft will have to continue supporting it. What they say and what they do are two different things. Both Dell and HP still sell XP in there business sections.
Of course Microsoft also said they were abandoning support and you would not be able to buy XP after June of 2008 and obviously that didn't happen either.

i work for the local govt and they just bought hundreds of dell latitude laptops for us to use in our vehicles and they specifically ordered them with xp os..so i dont think xp is going away for good

Deeter, you are listening to the market hype that Microsoft wants you to hear. The fact of the matter is they will follow what the market demands. For example, I had to drag out an old machine for a project that required a floppy drive, bi-directional printer port, and Win98. This was just a couple of weeks ago. When I got online to download the software, I got windows updates pushed to me even though they "stopped supporting" Win98 July 11th 2006. That date was even considered "extended support" that only included critical bug fixes. So with that as a measure of when they actually stop support, I would assume we should be good until sometime in 2012. I would hope that we could get a decent replacement operating system by then.

I guess I should have read the rest of the thread before I replied. Sorry for the re-hash.:w

I just ran across an interesting article about this very thread.

Good article Mark. As usual Microsoft continues to shoot themselves in the foot. When NT came out I couldn't wait to upgrade and get away from 98. When 2000 came out it was the same thing. Again with XP, but not until after the first SP. With Vista I still won't touch it. We'll see what Windows 7 looks like and how it acts when it comes out.

Years ago at the TV staion I worked for, I installed windows 2000 on one machine and had nothing but problems, I was to scared to use ME. Did you find 2000 to be stable Dale?

I agree, good article Mark, thanks for posting a link to it.

Used it for a number of years on USAF network on several thousand computers with no major problems. Then we went to NT which was even better.

I bought a copy of NT but never got to use it. The 16bit pro sound card I was using did not have a driver that would work so I had to abandone it. I did fine with Windows 95 eventually moving to Windows 98 then to XP. I'm glad to hear you didn't have the problems I experience with 2000.

My engineering partner LOVED Windows NT.
