I only got the chop though after I was adding the fx transfer utility. I accidentally erased the content of the MPX directory when I moved the keyboard
. Well after reinstalling and resetting all the .CFG's and .INI's I found my playback really choppy. When I first added my display I had to cut the DelayFactor to 3 but now even at 6 it still won't stop the "skipping". I even moved the RefreshDelay to six with the same results. Same hardware config just a reload of the software. I did find one workaround, setting mpxplay.ini to buffer the full file at 16+ block. This seems to get rid of the "skipping" but causes the song to pause as it loads it before play, "buffering". It's not a solution, but a work around. What I can't figure is why is it when the config is nearly the same as original. The last install I did, I upgraded from the prior version, but that is the only difference that I know of. I turned off look for pause as well with no effect.
Just for the record I am running on an I-opener 200 mhz Pentium class machine with 32 megs of ram.
I am loading himem.sys, EMM386.exe, mpxftsr (high), smartdrv.exe (high), and Mpxf (high).
Anyone have any other ideas to what the problem may be? I hae yet to move defrag onto the machine but I am moving it onto it tonight. HELP???!!!???
