MM4 in Windows XP

Post by LikeMM »

Does anyone have MM4 installed in a Windows XP machine? Could you please post a screen shot? Especially, the top border where the menu items appear alongside the tabs. XP doesn't permit that, right?

I have MM4 on my Windows7 laptop. May main pc is still XP + MM3.

Main menu and tabs are on the same row in XP. You can even put toolbars there. It isn't the topmost row though as that is just for MediaMonkey title and Close/Minimize/Maximize buttons.

I am hesitant to install MM4 on my main PC. As you know I have got many customized scripts (modified monkeyrok, autoDJ, etc.) I need MM4 to be rock solid before I install it on my main PC. I just can't have my play-count data corrupted. That is why I am trying it out on my laptop first, which is good so far but it is Windows 7. I don't have any crashes but I will wait for release version of MM :) BTW I don't use mini-player at all, I have monkeyrok open all the time.

I thought I agreed with Lowlander. But I'd like to achieve what DreadM has done in the screenshot below (with the tabs on the same level as the close button etc.). Does mine not look like this because I'm on XP? The pic is from here: http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... =9&t=58866
