My system info: Windows XP Home Service Pack 2, WMP 10.00.00.3802

While playing video files and skipping to different places in the track, the
volume does not stay at the same volume. For example, I will have the volume
set at a very low level and when I select a point in the file, say, a minute
ahead of the current point, the volume suddenly is at max. The volume slider
stays in the same spot in the window but the volume itself is much louder.
I've tried re-installing WMP and that did not work. Any other ideas? Any
response would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You bought a Dell and a have Creative sound card. Go to Creative's web site
and get their updated sound card driver.

PLEASE COMPLAIN TO DELL ABOUT THIS. Please please please please please.
I'm stunned that they're still doing this.

Thanks for the info. Actually it's a Sony Vaio, but it is a Creative sound
card.
