Singers Display Uses All CPU 100%

I Don't think It's The Program, Matter Of fact In My Opinion MTU Worked Long and Hard To Fill Everyone's Requests. However On One of my PC the program Works Fine and the other PC i have a issue with the singers Display. If i have the singers Display Open and a song is playing, When I click a singers name to display there songs the graphics will stop or lag and when the singers display finishes by opening the singers songlist then the grapics will catch up and work fine again. I've tried everything I could think of but ran out of anwsers. The CPU will use 99-100% Until Singers Display Gets done Opening and then goes back to Normal. Any Ideas

What other programs (foreground or background) are running?
Vista or XP?
How much memory on your computer?
What is the processor speed?
How much "Video" memory is on your video card?

Do you have all the Custom upgrades from Microsoft?

I have a Shuttle SN41g 1.2 2500+ 1gig Ram Nvidia on Board, I believe it's 32mb shared. Did'nt have a problem with it running 4.03 Also I Have XP and nothing is running in the background except what is needed in Task Manager, and everything in there shows 00 it's only Hoster that will run at 100%

Are you using Single or Dual screens?
If you video memory is only 32mb shared then that may be part of the problem. This would be an On-board card I am supposing. Might be a good idea if you have a slot for it to add a video card with about 256MB memory that is separate and thus does not require sharing.

I reported this problem around the middle of August, (ID: 11994-7425081030 ).. Support ask me to send a copy of my singers db. I did, but have not heard from them since. I had hoped ver4.04 would fix the problem. But it is just as bad now. I have enough memory, updates, etc........
Anytime you do anything with the singers DB, everything else either stops or slows until the DB has finished doing what ever it is doing.

Dale asked an interesting question that wasn't answered. Are either of you running in dual screen with the singer's display on the second monitor? If you are trying to run it on the same monitor, the color and screen resolutions are different for the CDG display and the windows you have open for program control. Imagine trying to do 2 things at once (Hoster window and search window) AND doing a totally different thing in another window (display words at a different resolution and color setting)

You can try setting your color display resolution back to 16 bit/8 bit, or lowering you display settings to relieve some of the strain on you video. The best option would be to upgrade to a faster video card with more onboard memory.

Laddie he is talking about the Singer's display not the singers database.

Your are talking about clicking the singers name from the singers database aren't you?
