Hi all!
For many years I've had LMS running on an HTPC I built, running Windows 7 x64. This works fine, except I've been having some troubles with the computer BSOD'ing a lot (at first due to a faulty stick of memory, but it keeps doing it, possibly due to that memory being somewhat incompatible with the motherboard or some driver fault, or perhaps damage done by all the crashes of the past). I think my continually putting the computer to sleep and waking it up exacerbates the issues I've had. In any case, I've decided it would be easier to use and more dependable if I had a small-form-factor, low-power device just to be that server. Looking around, the Zotac mini-pc's look pretty great for what I want. I was thinking of getting one of the i3 or i5 based ones. Has anyone tried these machines with LMS? I'd be running Linux on it, I think. What success have folks had with small form factor computers like this? Do you recommend any particular brands that work well? - Tim Integra Integrated Stereo Amp / Home Built Intel-based HTPC (running LMS) w/BluRay Player / Panasonic Viera TV Squeezebox Duet (Received in living room attached to stereo amp, Controller in bedroom).
