[PC] Palm, Meet Forehead.

So.

Went to the Media Monkey forums, and I'm thinking I probably should have done this in the first place instead of getting all cheesed off and wondering why nothing was working correctly. In the forums I found that the current version of MM has something that doesn't jive with Windows 7 64-bit at all and causes all sorts of spectacular failures...including what I've been living through over the last few weeks. Seems it's partly MM's fault, partly Windows'.

After doing *ANOTHER* factory restore, all is well. Music is working completely fine on Windows Media Player. Adding tracks there now.

Yes, I am feeling like a complete idiot for not thinking of this earlier.

*sigh*

At least I got a new cd/dvd drive out of the deal.

Y'all can commence with the "you should get an Apple instead" tripe. I suppose after all this I'll let you run with it. ;)

SO.

Using WMP until further notice. If MM gets their act together, I may redownload. But for now I guess I'll have to wait.

As for my Walk In Silence research...well, more on that later.


Now to start reinstalling stuff.

"you should get an Apple instead"

Ew no. I think this is just one of those cases of the software we're used to isn't caught up to running with W7 yet. And honestly? W7 does so many things right that I can't wait for everyone to adapt their programs to it. ^_^

I have to agree...this has happened many times with different programs in the past. There's MANY things I really do like about W7, after the wonkiness of the previous versions.
