Thread: XM RADIO_Stops after 10 minutes or so

do you have anything else running as well while listening to XM ?.... cos I have been listening to XM with a very similar setup for much longer than 10 minutes...

Listened to it for 45 minutes this morning on hte way into work

I have XP SP2 w/ XM direct using Hybrids cable. I am testing on my desktop to limit variables. Signal strength is very strong.

After listening to XM it stops responding. The music stops and the selected channel info stops. I can continue to navigate around the screen and highlight other channels, they just won't play. If I exit XM and go back in, It will work for a shorter amount of time. It will not work after that unless I quit the program and go back in. (Mem leak??)

I am not complaining - you guys especially Frodo are doing a great service for this group!!!

Thanks!

Did you call and activate your unit. XM will allow you to connect with your XM device for 10minutes as a trial type thing. This sound like the issue you have. If you did activate it, you may want to contact them and confirm it was activated.

The unit is active, I even refreshed it. It played for about 30 minutes at lunch today, then it stopped again.

Outlook & IE were running, but I have a gig of RAM in this machine.

Thanks again!
