Memory Leak....I Think.Need Help Plz
Hey guys,
I could really do with some help here.
Every time I play an MP3 in Windows Media Player it reaches a certain point then stops playing and media player kinda hangs.What i noticed is that when its playing normally and I open Windows Task Manger the memory usage for media player is going up and up until it reaches approx 260,000K and then thats when the music will stutter then stop.If i pause the Mp3 at any time the memory usage starts low again but will ALWAYS rise until it causes the mp3 to stop and media player struggles to work.Ive heard of memory leaks but thats it,ive no idea what is causing it or how to rectify it.
Id really appreciate any words of wisdom.
Thx in advance

In Media Player go to View|Visualizations and select "No Visualization." See if that decreases the memory use.

Unfortunetely turning visuals off didnt make a difference.I still appreciate the effort u made though.
Via microsoft i read about other ppls media player using alot of memory and cpu usage but no-one seems to know hot to rectify it.
ill just keep on searching i guess.
thx any way:-)
