iTunes Hanging Computer (Win 7)?

[cdcollura]

Good day all,

Although not really equipment related (MODS, move this if necessary), but a computer related issue, so I'll put it here.

I have the latest version of iTunes and it is running in 64 Bit Windows 7. I noticed that from time to time, when playing a song, the music stops and iTunes hangs ... So bad the machine has to be re-booted.

Has anyone else experienced this?

The issue is intermittant, and it's not a bad thing as I am not a fan of iTunes and never use it for playing music (just to sync my iPod, which works fine).

I tried re-installing it, and left iTunes playing for hours, no problems. Then, as the issue is intermittant, it hung again after 2 songs (music stopped and iTunes hung itself and Windows).

LOL, programmers just can't code anymore...

Apple doesn't really seem to try for its Windows releases. Almost like sabotage given the cross-section of Windows and iPod users.

I recall Bonjour, an obscure networking program bundled with QuickTime and iTunes, totally and completely annihilating Vista when I adopted it last year. The system was crippled in a way I had never seen before.

Bonjour is part of most printers and AIO machines nowadays and is not an obscure protocol. I install it on all Windows machines I have to deal with and have never had any issues whatsoever.
