I have just bought a new Dell PC with Vista Home Premium pre installed. I
transferred my music collection from my Iriver PMP manually (copying and
pasting). When i play mp3s in media player, with about 10% of the track
remaining - say 20 seconds to go, the track skips quite badly! Sounds strange
i know - buts its for all the tracks!! I installed media monkey and it plays
the mp3s fine so i figure its got to be media player. If i play the tracks
through media center it does the same thing. Is any one else suffering from
this issue? Have i missed something blatently obvious? I havent tried a DVD
yet but thats on my to do list! Changing the sound settings for SigmaTel High
Def Codec also dont seem to make too much of a difference!! Any help will be
greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance
