When i try to play music, theres a delay before it gets going is this just cause of my cheap computer, or turing. and is there anyway to get rid of this delay?

Its not your computer. And I don't believe there is a way to get rid of the delay. Sorry Sad .

I've had the same problem... then I figured out that its actually the loading pictures from floppy part thats slowing it down. Unless ur loading it from a floppy or something, then there really shouldn't be a pause, Im saying this by using the really crappy school computers too.

I tested playing a song in turing 4.0.5 on my comp and it takes less then one second for the song to start. Aucahly loads and plays faster then in windows meaida player.

Could be a combiation of alot of factors, like slow comp and some odd way of using the musick comand. If you are doing alot of CPU instive caluations at the same time i gusse it could take longer to load the file, alougth u whould think that has more to do with the hdd speed.

Isnt everything based on hd speed Laughing !? If the song is really large it will take longer, because (well I don't know I'm just guessing) Turing loads the song, instead of playing it stratight from file. So smaller songs might play faster...

use some soundeditors like goldwave (i think its good) n check to see if the song starts rite away with sounds, or whether there ar one or two sec in the beginning with no sound (if so u may wanna just delete those no sound sec)
