Stopping song just stops graphics, music continues on for a while

We have been working very hard on the sync of the lyrics and audio, and between the Preview Display and the Show Display. We'd fix it for XP and Vista would break. We'd fix it for Vista and XP would break. I finally dictated that we copy the "player" code, insert a switch for whether XP or Vista was running, and fix the XP problems in its player, and the Vista problems (and may are they there!!!! ) in its player. That solved a lot of problems.

We expect to release 4.02 Beta 8 today for our testers with this all fixed. We found some nasty bugs lurking around and will fix the last one today. All the sync problems appear to now be fixed.

I not only had all of the windows updates but all updates for my laptop installed. My Driver Agent Program showed 0% for old or BAD drivers.

This problem should be fixed now.

What "Driver Agent Program" are you using? Please post it here. It might be something we can recommend to users. As you know, it is impossible to know what you need to do to "clean up" your computer, drivers. etc. I ran Belarc Advisor recently and was innundated with so much techno garbage that I passed on reading beyond the first page. If there is a program that tells you whether your video drivers, audio drivers, motherboard drivers... yada yada yada are up to date, I'd buy that in a heartbeat!

Driver Detective is a useful tool to have. Let me know if it's suitable.

Do you pay, if so how much?

Had it been worth it to you?

Thanks

Works out at around $29 or extend your updates to 24 months for an extra $9.95. It's quick and easy and I thought it was worth it. Give it a go and try a free scan.

Ok.
First of all my support ticket from MTU advised I update my video and audio drivers. When I did a Google Search for Driver Updates Several Programs appeared to do a Free Scan of your computer. Then when you wanted to download them they wanted you to buy there software. The title of the one I bought was Driver Agent I believe the manufacturer is touchstone software. I chose this particular one after letting a few of them run the scan and DriverAgent Seemed to have the most information listed.(I'm no tech but you name it if it's in your computer they show a status for it.)
When I finally decided to part with my $30 I was surprised to see that the license allowed installation on 10 Computers. Therefore being able to update my back up computer and any future computers I may purchase.

It definitely was worth while to me. They also included as a gift Undelete which I then used to recover a fie from my wifes computer which had mistakenly been erased because of a Virus w/ similar name to a config file.

Also free Live Tech support is included.

Hope this might help some folks and answer your question without too much mumbo jumbo.
