Guess I should have read all my mail before claiming the worst system on the
list. BTW, I couldn't remember my sound card, but now that you've posted
it, yeah that's what I've got too. So tell me HOW are you getting 4
songs???!!
When you log on, about how many people are on your server? There's usually
1600ish on mine, and that number steadily rises till I go LD.
Heh, that reminds me, I've been going linkdead every night between 8:30 and
8:45 for about the last week or so. It's soooo bizarre! Last night I
announced this oddity to my group at 8:20. They laughed about it and told
me to stop being paranoid for the next 15 minutes. ;^)
Peace
Evulia, twink of twelve tunes, Tunare
