    Question Winamp problems

    I am constantly having problems with winamp lately. It will work for a few days then it freezes after playing a song for only a few minutes. To resolve it I have to uninstall winamp and then reinstall it. And it will work again for the next few days until it happens again.
    Any ideas or help will be greatly appreciated?

    Why exactly would you un-install it then re-install it? How bad of a crash are we talking about? Are you saying that once Winamp crashes, it will not load up again?

    Personally, it sounds like theres a particular song in your playlist that is causing this to happen. Maybe a .mp3 file encoded with a virus of some sort...

    I've had a similar problem with Winamp, it's happened to me a couple of times. . I usually just re-image my drive and it takes care of it for a good amount of time. The only thing I could image is that a file gets corrupted.

    I would say re-install Windows. If you don't have an image for your system, this may be a good time to think about doing it.
