    I've used my m1330 for around 7-9 months now (can't remember exactly), and now suddenly now I got stutter everytime I play mp3 with windows media player. I'm using XP and it seems that the problem comes from SP3 (yes, i just updated sp3 few days ago, and haven't listened to music until now). I dont have this problem with video files though.

    anyone having the same problem? I have looked around the forum, and it seems that its not the graphic card or wifi problem because before I didn't have this problem (even with vista).

    I have been using media player classic to play my mp3 for 1 hour now and it seems that the stuttering is gone! does sp3 mess the wmp? :confused:

    Stutter comes once in a while right? I'm getting the same thing with my M1530 w/ Vista. I can't believe it's happening to XP too. If someone got answers to this, by all means. I hate this problem.

    yes, the sound stutters badly. I didnt have the problem in vista though (I used vista for about 2 months).

    I'm only experiencing this problem after I updated my xp to SP3.. and silly me for not making any HD image before updating. sigh.. I'm thinking of reformating my computer but i think I will ask for opinion first in the forum.

    Off topic: hanime, your pic is the GUY from thailand right? he does look pretty. haha.

    off-topic: *ssshhhhhh* you are not supposed to reveal his..i mean her identity. haha!

    Oh yeah, if it's not too much of a hassle, try System Restore and revert back to SP2. Then check if it goes away.
