Okay... I'm set up to access the list from a new Hotmail account, as the old one seems to be playing havoc with Dan's server.
From: "Cerulean Skies" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>?whole thing, then put my mp3's on. This cured the clicking for me. I've since installed a 20GB IBM HD.rom: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> rom: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Im still worried about the clicking issue Lee. Was that a problem for only
one Travelstar you have, or for all of them.
only one, and again I'm not convinced it's the drive. It's not really a
click, more like a static discharge kind of noise. I'll see how the new
Travelstar does, but I'm on a lengthy road trip so that report will have to wait awhile.
The vague, short little clicks I hear on MP3s played by my 20GB Fujistu could probably be decribed as static. Kinda hard to pin down what sounds sound like via the net though.
If this is the same clicking I've heard from my lib100, it's not HD dependent. I was using a 6GB HD t the time. Winamp used to click once or twice on almost every one of my half hour drives to school. I ad a feeling it was due to Windows, so I started killing services (until ctrl-alt-delete only showed systray explorer and winamp) and choosing processor-light options. I used 98lite to strip my winME down, and went through and manually deleted even more things I can live without, defragged the
It does not click.
The clicking I'm getting from my Fujitsu 20MB HDD seem they're something different than you're experiencing Sky... After 5-10 munutes of play, MP3s start clicking every 5-10 seconds on a constant, ramdom basis. They sound like tiny, faint static discharges. But the MP3s still did it whewn I reformmated the entire HDD, and installed fresh copies of both Win98 and Win98SE.
So... ????? I don't have the problem with my old Toshiba 6GB HDD on my L100. I guess I'll experiment with the 1.6GB IBM HDD I have sitting around here somewhere.
