i have changed my systems in the signiture of my posts. to reflect what is going to happen in a week or so.
the jukebox now is still on windows 98 but it is on notice. i will move it to the xp when i get the new motherboard and cpu.
i have to make this change not for any other reason then 98 is starting to make errors, strange ones of scanning the cdrom drive when not told to and that makes the system lock. so many times of this has made me change my mind on keeping it running so in a weeks time it will be the end of the longest non stop running never reformated win98 computer. i think 1998 to 2009 for not formating it is a good run. and non stop 24 hour playing since about 2003 to 2009 is a great run.

thats likely a record for the record books. that will never be broken. except by me when i turn the 98 off.

i might but watch microsoft say they still have one running so they can take the record. they like to assimulate everything.

been gone all weekend not from home but from the forum.
wow 3 days i did not even read it.

i was changing my jukebox over.

i had everything put in the case new mb and cpu, and i had xp set up to format and install on drive c.

when i got it started i found it had formated my drive D and installed on it. the oldest and slowest drive there.
but you say so what just work from there. all my monkey mdb files and other scipts 400 + were sitting on drive d it was not to be touched. but the xp install changed all the drives and wiped the backed up files from the d drive.

oh well its only 20 songs i lost and i had only done minor changes to the scripts but i got them backed up on cdrom.
now am just adding the stuff back in to mm3. passing out now got to get sleep long time anymore for me is 2 days with out sleep and then i got to sleep. like now.

If these are good (and speedy) components, you will be good for another 10 years of non-stop music.

Good night cowboy!

only seem to get 4 hours of sleep nomatter how tired i am?

good is yet to be seen i believe they are since there was only two styles of mb's that handled eide systems.
the jukebox is super fast now that new 160 ghz cpu and the 1 gb of ram. it takes no time at all to handle the large library.

found out some things in doing this switching stuff. will post them in another message.

but its as good as this jukebox is going to get cause there aint going to be any need to update from it, when it is out of date and then used to beyound the hdware's expected life like the win98 went then there won't be any computers left.
we will be using dick tracy rings that handle 80 tb. of memory and have 70 gb of ram on 7000 fsb and a intel / amd 777.77ghz cpu
