  Arlene,

  PC hardware has been pretty much 64-bit for the last few years now. 64-bit 
Windows Vista was a popular option, and 64-bit Windows 7 is pretty much the 
default. This is true for all PC's, home and business. Applications haven't 
really taken advantage of this yet, but that's starting to change.

  Hi Alex, Arlene here. I know it's slightly off topic but are you using your 
64 bit rate computer as a business machine? Or, is it a use for home machine? 
the reason I was asking is because the 64 machines are usually used for 
business. Although I could be wrong. Or, do you use those kinds of computers 
broadcasting with winamp?

    It doesn't work properly as the jaws directory structure for 64-bit systems 
is different.

    Cheers

    Are you using a 64-bit version of windows 7? If you are I have exactly the 
same problem.

    Cheers

    Ok, I'm not sure if it is something that I am doing, or not doing for that 
matter, but functions that used to work, no longer work. Firstly, for those 
that I know are going to ask anyway, I am running the newest version of winamp, 
downloaded directly from winamp.com. Next, I am running windows 7, and jaws 11. 
Ok, now that that is out of the way, my first concern is the time markers. When 
I have a track playing, and press the m key, instead of allowing me to place a 
time marker, I get the announcement that there is no track playing, when 
clearly there is. Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas on a fix..., or even 
a work around? I already know that the library is buggy, so I'm not even gonna 
attempt to figure that one out. The second item that I am having problems with 
is the alt R key command. I can adjust the amount of time that winamp will jump 
to at the end of the track, but when I do the alt R key command, nothing 
happens. I don't think I am missing anything, but I do know that this function 
used to work in earlier versions of winamp and jaws, because it was a function 
that I used frequently. I'm starting to wonder if it is a software problem, or 
if it might be more of a flaw in the JFW scripts. If anyone has any good ideas, 
I'll appreciate any and all comments!

     

    Rob
