I finally broke down and bought a new PC for the family. I use an HP Pavilion zv5000 laptop for myself - wireless connected - and used a USB drive for my FLACs. SB3 is wireless also. I was running Slim Server 6.5.
My family PC is now an HP Pavilion Media Center m8300f PC running Vista Premium Home 32 bit. A bit of fiddling to get the networking going. Anyway, I loaded my 75b of FLACs from the USB drive onto the internal Media Center disks (2 x 320GB) and downloaded SqueezeCenter 7. 10 minutes later I am listening to my music on the SB3!!! I like the "Default" interface better than the "Fishbone" I used to use. All I can say is Wow!!! That was easy. My only concern is that Vista seems to be screwing up my laptop's wireless network connection for some reason - that doesn't really make any sense - but it hasn't affected the SB3 yet. So - apprehensive as I was at using Vista - everything is looking good. Got to go and listen to some Vittorio :-) Habs -- cjhabs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cjhabs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3760 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=44714 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
