Thank you for this. I'm using Windows Vista, so I'll download putty. I'll try this when I get home. What is considered to be high %CPU and "io" numbers? Yes, those are the "Folders" I saw when I used my laptop to see what devices were on the network (my hard drive connected to my Touch). When I have the hard drive connected to my laptop and I look in the F: drive, I don't see those. I figured out the album art situation. The tracks in the folders were not tagged with the jpg file. So when even though the album art was contained in the folder with the tracks, they weren't linked up. I spent some time using mediamonkey to tag the tracks with the jpg file. I then did a wipe and scan overnight. This morning, I saw the album art for the ones that I "fixed." -- crimscrem ------------------------------------------------------------------------ crimscrem's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37536 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=78077 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
