If someone could help me this problem Id be grateful. When I listen to
audio programs via DSL 3.0 internet, at times my playback is delayed for
approximately 30 seconds (longer or shorter). This is a fairly new computer
with much memory and is fast. However, I have an old bare minimum computer
that works with WMP10 just fine.
This new computer doesnt have a firewall. I've gone through the FAQ's and
nothing seems to help. WMP10 works fine with CD's. I believe the problem is
related to the buffering. The connection speed and buffering in the options
box is selected as recommended.

Ignore the auto-detect network settings. and either set the buffer
time manually (eg to 5 seconds) and tell the player you have a
connection speed of LAN (10mbps or more) in the drop down box.
These options are in Tools -> Options -> Performance (rather than the
expected Network tab !)
HTH
