Windows Vista x64 and Winamp 100% CPU usage

DatAsian · 11th December 2006, 15:00

I tried reading the other/locked thread for information but couldn't get any. After a lot of test tries, it seems that primosdk.dll has been causing it to hit 100% continuously. Deleting this DLL brought WinAmp back to normal CPU usage of under 5%. Hope this helps the OP in that thread.

WinAmp + Global hotkeys > Windows Media Player

Windows Vista x64 RC2

primodsk.dll is related to the Sonic engine (and removing it disables the Sonic engine I believe), and as noted in that thread the Sonic engine is not compatible with Vista (yet).
But thanks for the report
