    Well, I spent the last two days downloading and installing: .NET 3.0 Windows SDK and all of the other recommend apps. Oh yea, I also installed the last Windows Media Player. The result, now I have a few bugs. 1. There is a svchost process that hangs up using 50% CPU. 2. Windows won't run login scripts 3. Sound devices are lost 4. The system will render windows sometimes in classic or XP style or XP style then refresh to classic I uninstalled everything and for the most everything is fine except Sound devices and login scripts. Any thoughts?

            Not sure if this will help or not, sysinternals processexplorer (sysinternals.com) allows for showing among other things the commandline of the process that's running... goes a long way toward figuring out rogue svchost processes that seem to suck resources. Good Luck!

                              Actually, Chuck Norris does not write programs. He roundhouse kicks his computer until it satifies his demands.

                                I'd love to see the algorithm for the 'shuffle' function. I have over 200 songs on my work laptop and it constantly picks about about 10 of those.

                                  Well, I spent the last two days downloading and installing: .NET 3.0 Windows SDK and all of the other recommend apps. Oh yea, I also installed the last Windows Media Player. The result, now I have a few bugs. 1. There is a svchost process that hangs up using 50% CPU. 2. Windows won't run login scripts 3. Sound devices are lost 4. The system will render windows sometimes in classic or XP style or XP style then refresh to classic I uninstalled everything and for the most everything is fine except Sound devices and login scripts. Any thoughts?

                                  It turns out that the svchost, sound devices and rendering are related to a MS Update recently released. I restarted the machine and then using an app. called ProcessExplorer.com, I found the wsus.exe was in the pot as a problem. So, then I at the command prompt typed 'tasklist /svc' and inspected the locked up process included every service that I was having issues with. So, it looks like the problems with the .NET 3.0 installation were actual caused by something else. Tomorrow after installing all patches and fixes, I will try the .NET 3.0 again.

                                    You're right. I noticed every comment that is anti-Microsoft or pro-Microsoft competitor gets low ratings. :-D

                                      It turns out that the svchost, sound devices and rendering are related to a MS Update recently released. I restarted the machine and then using an app. called ProcessExplorer.com, I found the wsus.exe was in the pot as a problem. So, then I at the command prompt typed 'tasklist /svc' and inspected the locked up process included every service that I was having issues with. So, it looks like the problems with the .NET 3.0 installation were actual caused by something else. Tomorrow after installing all patches and fixes, I will try the .NET 3.0 again.

                                          Orcas web dev first. I had .NET 2.0 already. Then windows SDK. That's it.
