Hoster Skipping/studdering

[70mlbu]

Done... didn't work! I got the most recent driver and Hoster did run longer without burping but after about 40 minutes it stopped for a few seconds in the middle of a song. What a pain!

Something else I did was disable the Windows Search Indexing for both the C: drive and the backup D: drive partition.

I'm still looking for a solution... Thanks for any additional help!

Have you tried reloading Hoster, not just updating it?... Sure all your reconfigurations are correct?...Built in Microphone off?...Jesss, I've been where your at, sucks...Have you tried getting System Mechanic? I used that on my system, not sure if it helped, or if it was a combo of things.

Hi Jon,

Let's see... 1) This is a new (used) computer so I removed all the old junk/data/programs from it and installed the newest Hoster so the install is new; not an update. 2) I've disabled all firewall, anti-virus, and anything having to do with Norton 360 software. 3) I disabled Windows Indexing Service for C: and D:. 4) Defragmentation is 0%. 5) I updated graphic and sound drivers (ATI and IDT). 6) I checked for Windows updates - all up to date.

I'm sure there are more... I read through this thread multiple times and I think the only thing I haven't tried is System Mechanic but HP has a built in maintenance program that diagnoses the system, looks for updates, and applies changes as required.

I'm going to keep working the problem for awhile before I resort to MTU support. I just apologize to audiences ahead of time... Fortunately most audiences enjoy the way we put on a show so there isn't too much flack .

The new Hoster install may have loaded wrong, happens. I'd reload it one more time, can't hurt.

I just uninstalled and reinstalled... Hoster burped on the second song. At shows recently we've been able to run the sync slider back and get on track but this time it burped too long for the slider adjustment. I just started another song and am watching the Processes under Windows Task Manager. System Idle Process is running 92-98. I'm not online; network adapter is disabled. My DJ program is not running. Hoster is the only program running. Just started the second song... no burp yet. Darn it! It just burped - 4th song - and I wasn't fast enough to see what process was running!!! I'm going to keep trying...

i would reformat the hard drive and put a fresh copy of windows on it. then update all the drivers from their own website.

im sure if you do this you wont have any problems.

I am having the same problems with skipping & going out-of-sync and have had for some time. It happens every night. I have tried everything posted on this thread to no avail. I thought it was the fact that I was running BA. Tried turning it on & off with the same results. I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING. I've gone through the recommended updates and changes. I'm getting a lot of looks from my clientele and they aren't smiles. I truly hope this problem gets resolved soon. I love Hoster and don't want to leave!
