Brutish Sailor Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I went ahead and reinstalled Winamp due to some minor issues I was having with my favorite Winamp source streamer, Edcast. NOW, I cant get Edcast reinstalled because of windows newest service pack auto update. ......... So unless I find a good Icecast DSP that does metadata, I'm stuck at the mercy of my shoutcast DSP that keeps losing encoder settings.. CONSPIRACY! I don't know how, but I'm sure Microsoft, Aliens, Bill Gates, Bob Barker, and some random shmuck named Joe are behind this one. I'll figure out how to get around it, but this is the last time auto update will ever be activated. KNSJ.org / 89.1 FM San Diego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GKIye Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 My Win auto update settings are disabled as "ask before downloading" This works out very well .. if needed the user can check each update at the Windows Update website before downloading In your current situation you can maybe restore the content by checking your Software > Updates .. and uninstall the most recent made updates .. Reboot and check the Windows Update website and choose those who are needed .. I'm not an IT specialist .. its just an idea of Me who can be helpfull Visit and listen @ BW !

Brutish Sailor Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Yeah, I know.... I REALLY get pissed at MS for making their software not geared for us. First Vistas OS KILLS the shoutcast DSP mixer. Then this... KNSJ.org / 89.1 FM San Diego Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Mmmm it is a major debatable issue, security over stability. Whether or not to install these packs. Me, personally i dont, my computers as useless as a one legged man in an arse kicking contest. I couldnt care about updates these days with windows 7 'soon' coming out!
