4.06 issues including out of sync on XP

[dspins]

Was reading this post and I found it pretty informative and somewhat helpful. I have noticed since updating to 4.xxx I have seen alot of graphic/sync problems as well. This is mainly when trying to add a song from a singers disc during a show. It used to load flawlessly while singers were singing but now it causes pauses and slow graphics and you need to shut down MTU and restart. I used to smile and say no problem when someone brought in their own disc, now I cringe. For now when someone insists on using their own disc version of a song, I just play a song on windows media player while hoster is loading the Karaoke disc and then restart hoster to be sure there will be no problems. It wastes show time, but it is better than all the problems that follow loading a cd.

I am currently going through and double checking that all the new suggested settings are met. Hoping that I find something left checked on in system settings or video settings that is causing this. Also getting ready to bump up from 1.5 to 4 gig of ram on XP pro. (yes I know Xp only recognizes between 3-3.8gig depending on your computer) This new ram is much faster than the old, hopefully this will help as well.

I know you guys are trying hard to keep everyone happy. Vista has done nothing but destroy how smoothly hoster runs. Soon, vista will go in the garbage can (like windows ME did) and they will have that new OS done with beta testing. Then we will see all of these problems go away hopefully.
