Vista - Windows Media Player Playback

Windows Media Player Playback

When playing audio in Windows Media Player, for about the final 10 seconds
of a song the playback sounds like a CD skipping (best description I can
come up with). This doesn't happen if I don't have another song in the
playlist. It happens whether or not I have any plugins or visualizations
enabled.

This only occurs in Windows Media Player and not in WinAmp. I personally
prefer WinAmp, but thought this might need some attention for the benefit of
other users.

System:

O/S: Vista Business 6.0.6000
CPU: AMD Turion 64 X2 (TL-50)
RAM: 2GB

Go to the Audio Card settings and Disable Enhancements.
