I have this on all 7 of my xp computers.

click my computer

right click any hard drive, and pick properties.

on the bottom of the properties dialogue box there is a check box that says allow indexing for file services for fast file finding.

also a check box for compress files to save disk space.

May be an XP Pro item? I thought it had been around since Win 2000, but could be wrong.

Could be it's tied in with NTFS, which the larger drives employ. I just use 80gb drives so no need to go to NTFS, which could explain why I don't have indexing.

George, I think you got it. I am so used to only using NTFS format for security that my mind doesn't register FAT anymore.

However, I don't think we have solved the problem yet (sigh)...so anyone have any other suggestions. I have about run out.

My question is: Do all zip files import correctly and then play properly when in the system? I had many zips that wouldn't take and then only a portion of the ones that did play correctly without errors.

It was a while ago with version 3.01 I believe.

It depends on how you ripped them, and processed them. 20% of the ones I imported for this guy didn't import. The graphics for all of his were good.

the reason the 20% didn't process was the compression of the zip was too high. I am going to unzip them tonight an process the bad ones.

Locate and expand "Indexing Service"
Locate and Expand "System"
Open "Directories"
Right Click and Delete any folders or drives you don't wany indexed.
