[quote who="ddraney" reply="29" id="3110203"]Foobar is mostly used for FLAC playback, but also is a good mp3 player, very light footprint however, not sure it's still supported. [/quote] It's still in development.....just not very fast track. I believe a new version was released last month. I've tried it and my only gripe is that it's assembly ware. There are "plugins" for damn near everything you need but you've got to spend the time trying them out and de

Noticed something else. On my Desktop with the 2 video cards. It works now but Rainmeter shows Explorer banging my Quad core for about 220% usage constantly until I disable it.

Started using Winamp back around 2000. Eventually got a pro license. Now I use a combination of Zune and Winamp. I'll go for Winamp when I want to add vizualizations but stick to Zune otherwise. To me, creating playlists is a pain. Zune has an function called "smart DJ" that lets you pick a song and create a playlist based on it.

Deskscapes does an excellent job with multi-monitor wallpaper & dreams. You can use Objectdock and Tiles to give you the additional taskbar function. I have 3 monitors and use Tiles on the left, the W7 Taskbar in the middle and a Winstep Shelf on the right.

you need to put that thing next to a fan or ac vent while you use it......it is most likely fan failure since both CPU & GPU are running hot under minimal loads you should be able to get a fan for less than $50 & you'll need artic silver as they normally mount like a heat sink on top of the CPU

I'm with Jorge. Temps first then memory. I have an ASUS F8V I upgraded to W7x64. Probably the best laptop I've ever had and I've had a few....3 Sonys, 2 Dells, 1 HP & 1 Toshiba The most common issue I've run across is fan failure (except that big ass 17" Sony....it went thru 3 mbs) I've replaced fans on 3 different laptops from 3 manufacturers. One is a Sony Vaio PCG FRV26 I bought 10 years ago and is still running today.
