Hi Coen - Yes apologies I should have said - I have rebooted many many times now and still the volume control is there. I will try reloading the drivers when I get a chance and see what happens.

Ok. I presume you load the drivers in normal os mode. So with reverting to minimise os something does not work. I am afraid this is where the restorepoint comes in.. Regards, Coen

Hi Peter - I only ever use Engine #4 with KS (and I always check that it is selected before I start play back). Since my system rebuild - whether or not the o/s is minimised I get the windows volume control which allows me to adjust the volume. I only noticed it because when I first fired up XX after my system problems the volume level was very low and I just could not find out what the problem was - it was then I noticed the windows volume control was enabled and set at about 20%. Raising it to 100% brought the output level back to where I would expect it to be. Maybe I will have to reload the driver.
Cheers

Did you reboot? I read somewhere this has to do with clearing the reboot cache. Sound should be disabled in minimised os. It worked for me. Regards, Coen

Hi,
Mininised os i suppose? Then it should be disabled. I encountered this situation after a driver update. My cure: reboot a few times (I didfive) and see if the loudspeaker icon on the right is crossed with a red cross. Then everything is ok again.
Regards, Coen

This message keeps appearing after each album in the playlist. Annoyingly the music stops also. I am not aware that I changed anything in the setup. This is something of the last two weeks...
I remember having read some posts about this, but can't find them.
Anyone?
regards, Coen

Just a last remark on the new ipad screen. Do not underestimate the importance of this for reading (ibooks, but especially surfing the web). Next to the better sharpness, the new ipad screen had far better contrast, wich helps too. I think the money is well spent in the end.
I have not seen any comparable screen yet. The best other one is the Blackberry Playbook, which is much smaller and runs on RIM. You can emulate Android on it, but that doesn't work well for most apps. Not an option really I think. On the positive side this device is a super bargain compared to the alternatives..
regards, Coen

If you keep things simple 16g will do, eur100 for 16 extra gigs is a lot of money. I was running into the limits of my 16g ipad1 though, thats why I opted for the 32g version.
Keep in mind that the ipad is potentially much more than a xx remote. On my work I use it for taking notes and reading documents and mail. Though I have a laptop from my employer I find the pad much more convenient for all tasks save for the making and editing of office documents. Whether you go the apple or android route, you will be amazed by the many (free) apps.
If you want a realistic picture of the total cost I would factor in the magnetic cover and a rear protection skin. Especially when you have kids running around.
Though I don't have a 3g version I am pretty shure that the ipad-apps do not care what kind of internetconnection is available (wifi or 3g). Facetime is through your apple-id between apple divices. For skype you need your own skype account.
Regards, Coen

Fwiw, if you're going the Apple route I suggest to save for the ipad three aka 'the new ipad'. No, I urge you to! It's screen is the best I have ever seen. Razor sharp, fantastic contrast and colours. This should really help navigating with xx. As an every day user if it I can contest that the difference with an ipad two is night and day. And this forum is about high resolution, eh?! Coen
