    MP3 skipping in winamp

    When I play music, occasionally mp3's skip for a second or two. What might be causing this? Its a fairly recent development

    I have run virus and other checkers and I am clean, what could be causing it?

    Disk fragmentation maybe? How big is the buffer set at in winamp and what priority is the decoder running at. What timer resolution is it set at too (presuming you're on WA5.)
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    There is the culprit!

    It was set to idle.

    Hmmm, maybe not it usually is I think. Maybe you've installed some stuff that sits in memory and takes up CPU now and then?

    Still, as long as it works now...

    $s = new signature();

    My guess would have been a USB device of some sort. Mate of has the same problem when he's using a USB ADSL modem...
