Vista - choppy at the end

So I copied all of the ripped music I had onto data dvds and loaded them into
windows media player 11 when i got my pc. Everytime I play something the last
10 seconds or so the sound cuts out almost as though its skipping like a bad
cd. It does this for EVERY song I play. I've sifted through the forums and
found nothing about it. I have integrated audio, not a special sound card. I
wish I could have gotten this pc without Vista. Everything I've read makes it
sound like a complete nightmare but any help on this matter would be greatly
appreciated......atleast until I uninstall it and stick XP on it.

same here....I'll be looking for help

This may help
Applies to a Dell where at about 20 seconds from the end of each song there
is a single skip.

right click on speaker in system notification area
select playback devices
in playback tab double click speakers/headphones
in enhancements taab check 'Disable all enhancements'

Your milage may vary.

Michael

This sounds like the solution to my problum but im new to my laptop so what
is the system notification area?

The area at the extreme lower right of the Taskbar (extreme lower right of your
screen -- time, speaker, etc.).
