I just downloaded and install and can confirm it installed and no more win98 crashing

thanks.

The new randomization seems to be working very well. I've been playing random tracks for the last 8 hours straight, and I have not noticed any clustering or repeats.

Anyone else notice any differences/improvements?

BTW, Spoon -- I love the feature where it resumes mid-track where it left off, like if you have to reboot or something. Very cool!

The remember column size also works great thanks, it was really annoying before having to resize them all the time

Randomiser works like a treat

And the columns work too

Just confirming Razgo's post. no Win98 GPF's here with this release either.

(and my cpu is still overclocked Spoon

Also this release seems to have resolved something else that was only mildly annoying, and that was when using a hidden start bar, when selecting, it would not be on-top, but be behind any open app (if that app was full screen for instance). So to get the start bar onscreen had to CTRL ESC... but no more.
