    My SZ keeps stuttering for a few seconds during the last 30 seconds of every song. I think its got to do with the hard drive seeking the next song, but i dont get why there should be a stutter. unless i need some sort of hard drive drivers

    Ha sounds like the problem I had.

    But the solution that worked for me is to...

    Start
    Control Panel
    Sound
    Double-click on Speakers/Headphones
    'Effects' tab
    Disable System Effects (tick)

    and this solved my problem. Hope this works for you as well. :)
