    No explorer id3-info on xp

    Hi

    I've just installed Win XP, sp1 and all updates til today.
    Before, I had Win 98SE and it has always been a great help when I checked an mp3 and on the left of the window, the mp3 info showed up.
    Now, only the xp default details are shown. (I already checked popup info tips in explorer)
    what is my mistake?

    thank you

    To clarify my problem, I have uploaded an example:
    this is how it's supposed to be on 98se: http://mitglied.lycos.de/myck79/dbpower.png
    and this on xp,sp1: http://mitglied.lycos.de/myck79/neu.png

    How do I add this '98-look' into xp?

      Is it 'View as Web Page?' or some such option to put the bit down the left side.

        You're right. It's shown down of the page, right above the taskbar. How can I switch this web-view off?

              What happens if you switch XP to use the classic (win 98) theme.

                As you can see, nothing has changed: http://mitglied.lycos.de/myck79/567.png

                So how does it look on your computer? Am i the only one who experiences that on XP?
                For a proper display, I somehow have to get rid of the Details, Andere Orte (other places) and Datei- und Ordneraufgaben

                  I think that is how it is on my machine with xp. On my machine the extra pop up information only appears when I place the mouse pointer over an individual music file.
                  What happens with other format audio files such as wma. ape and ogg?

                  It is not a problem for me however, as I run Directory Opus 6 in Windows Explorer replacement mode and I never get to see the usual explorer window.
