Roy,
Now I'm more confused than ever. I took the laptop downstairs and hooked it up. I then tried media player and it sounded great, so I then opened Hoster an started playing a song. The music wasn't as bad as before, but still had a problem. I then checked the connections and the connections were fine. Then I disabled my antivirus and everything except the sync was fine. The sync is all over the place. During a song I would have to minus the sync, then more minus and more. It seemed like the sync wouldn't stabilize. Oh, I did check the Windows Task Manager and the only thing that was active was the System Idle Process under CPU. It was 93. Now, here's where it gets weird. I brought the laptop upstairs to the study and opened Hoster. When I started playing a song it sounded bad, so I disabled the antivirus, but it didn't make it sound any better!?!? Also, the sync was still all over the place. I'm going to have the antivirus check the whole system, because I do get on the web once in a while for updates on some other programs on the laptop.

Thanks,
Ernie
