winamp runs 14% faster on win 2k

BearJammer · 30th October 2000, 02:35

Since installing Win 2k on my machine (pIII 733) winamp plays songs too fast. There is about a 14% incrase in speed. I can slow it down with the Pacemaker plug in, but the quality is poor. Can some one help me out?

I have the same problem. I haven't done anything all afternoon cause I'm trying to get my music not to sound like the chipmunks!

I run Win2k Pro on a Celeron 600 at 1008mhz and it works fine.

I think I have seen something similar before but I think it was just bad buffer settings. But it has been so long ago I don't remember.
Try setting them to default.

Good Luck!

Actually, it was a sound card problem. I removed the card from device manager and refreshed, installed the card again, and it works fine now.
