Maybe everybody knew that but me. But, it's a great relief to know. Secondly, I notice that when I create and save several Jukebox lists of tunes and put them in a folder, when I call up any particular set it loads OK, but won't play. If that same list is sitting on the desktop outside a folder, they load and play just fine. What's going on here?

Disabling WiFi is the only cure and you found it and that's good.

Maybe you are using Vista and have not disabled User Account Control or maybe the BB folders are installed under Administrator and you are logged on as somebody else at the time, suspect things like that.

OP J. Larry Journeyman J Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 559	Thanks for the replies. I just glad it's working now with no glitches. Just keep the fingers crossed. It's a Dell XPS M1530, dual core, with 7200 spin hard drive. It came with Vista Home Premium. On the right side is a sliding swith to turn off the wireless, blue tooth, etc.. I'll investigate the issue of the play lists in Juke Box. Now, to see if I can get the Edirol UA-1ex audio interface to work with it. I tried it on another laptop (XP) and got nothing but popping noises on audio playback. Works great, however, in recording/archiving old tapes and albums.

Mine came with Vista Ultimate, so maybe that makes a difference. Who'd have computers - right royal PIA if you ask me! Mind you, the M1330 is the best laptop I've ever had - until the next one of course .... Brian
