WinAmp5 running in the background playing mp3s while running SL v 1.2.10 causes SL to crash periodically. Seems to happen relativly consitently and takes about 15 minutes after SL starts before crashing. Out of 10 restarts it happened 7 times.


System is: WinXP, Pentium4 3.2Ghz, 512M Ram, Geforce 5900, SB Audigy 2.


Anyone else seen this?

System A:
Athlon 1800 XP
1024MB DDR PC2700
EPOX 8K3A+ Motherboard
SBLive! Platinum 5.1 (w/ live drive)

Winamp 5 Beta RC8

- Fine, played 10 hours +, no crashes yet

System B:
Athlon FX51
2048MB DDR PC4000 Registered
ASUS nforce2 motherboard
Audigy 2

Winamp 5 (Full ver.)

- Again, no crashes.

Try reinstalling winamp, then reinstall the bloatware that is the creative drivers.
