Hi Rod,

I don't use Vista, but in case another Vista user can help you -
1. Have you used LW 4 on the new computer without these issues?

2. Are you trying to play files using the LW player?

3. Have you tried disabling LW's player & using different players? VLC player is a free one that we recommend here, you could give that a try. Check out this link for info: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/tips-t...p3-fixers.html

Pro is Pro... don't pay for a year's worth if you're not happy with the one time download. It won't make a bit of difference

If you're sure that it's a Vista issue rather than a player issue - go to control panel & see whether there's a 'sounds & audio devices' equivalent or whether you have an icon there for your sound card - maybe you can adjust things that way.
Otherwise, check out these links below, or use Google to see whether you can find any more info.
