Acer aspire 1362wlc, mp3's skip when playing!

My computer shop rand acer about it and acer said they can't do anything about a software issue (which it probably is), then my computer shop put it back to factory condition and that's where I am now. I am going updating the BIOS, would that fix it?

I updated bios and no luck, this happens with every media player, would a mobile cpu cause this?

My Acer ter-600 with the powerful p3-600MHz, 256MB RAM and Windows 2000 seems fine. But I don't use WMP, and know if I start my video editor during playback it may pause since that's the nature of PCs. However, if it's just playing video, it does fine.

Too bad you are not following that forum note. There's so little to work with here.

And about that hijackthis log. I haven't seen it.

There's 3 items that you might be able to toss.

Of course this may be normal for your machine to glitch if you have less than 512MB RAM or some network connection that is not used. Windows does pause about every 10 minutes if you have an ethernet connection and it's not used. But your post is void of details. I can't keep asking for such.

MS XP HOME SP2
Mobile AMP Sempron processor 2800+ 1.6 ghz
448MB RAM

It cant be normal if the exact same mp3s that I have on 2 pc's work perfect in the exact same program (MixmEister) and not on the laptop?

What other details can I get for you?

What's plugged into the ethernet port.

You need to read my replies and take the hints about issues. If not, you'll likely end up broke at a repair counter (let's hope not!)

Bob

i disabled the ethernet connection as I have none. and still the same

While you did claim all players do this, you never revealed what you are using. And by your hijack log you are running other applications that will interfere.

I'm very patient but can't ask every question. You should just spill the beans.

Bob

I open the same mp3 every time in windows media player and don't touch anything just let it play and evry time I play the song, there is a skip in a new part of the song. I am using an acer aspire 1362wlc

If I didn't let me write I know of no cure for that one.

What else did you try?

Bob

I disbled the page file, no luck
I done the dma thing, no luck
I done the ethernet thing (but didn restart, does that matter)
I terminated some of those background processes.
What else can I do?
