Vista vs. XP Sound Recorder

::I agree with all the complaints I’ve read about Vista Sound Recorder.
It definitely lacks the versatility of previous versions.

Vista Sound Recorder is a big step backwards for Microsoft. Why in the
world would Microsoft choose to -subtract- usable features from any
program?

::
::My main complaint is that you cannot open existing sound files in
Vista Sound Recorder. Therefore, it lacks the quick & easy conversion
capabilities I used to appreciate in XP Sound Recorder.

::
::Although I have Audacity, I used to use XP Sound Recorder frequently
for quickie conversions: to reduce the file size of a Wav for emailing,
for instance.

By having saved the name of the compression attributes I wanted
(Convert to MPEG 3-Layer 32Kbit Mono 22,050Hz), it was a very simple
matter to quickly convert & compress a Wav in XP Sound Recorder… in
seconds.

Of course, I can accomplish the same thing in Audacity, but not nearly
as easily or quickly.

I’ve read Richard Urban’s explanation of how XP Sound Recorder can be
used in Vista (below).

Can anyone verify that this will work?

Where can I download a copy of XP Sound Recorder?

::-::>…the sound recorder from Windows XP can be used in Vista. Copy
the file and then save it to C:\Windows\System32. Create a Shortcut
(suggest calling it Sound Recorder XP) and place the shortcut in your
accessories folder. Now you can use either one.
>The first time you run the old version of Sound Recorder, run it with

administrator privileges, as there are registry entries that must be
allowed to be written. The next time, and all times after, you can run
Sound Recorder normally.

You you are so bad you make frank seem as he is a spiritual person of great
kindness and understanding, that talks gentle and speaks wise words, has a
brilliant mind, and smells like roses.

Sorry to say this to you... but I prefer Franks company than yours.. at
least he is funny...

I never thought you would want to come over. I'm not to sure. You just
might be a wacko. I would prefer you hanging out with Frank, but I don't
think Frank would want to hang out with you?

I suggest finding a forum where you could find others to hang out with. Now
you will have to excuse me because I need to spray some more of my Rose
scented deoderant on.

Re: Vista vs. XP Sound Recorder
>Just went to the doctor about 2 weeks ago. Clean bill of health.

You didn't tell him about your little adventures in newsgroups, multiple
personality, crazy unstable ideas, feelings of rage and anger, did you?

That's your secret... You don't want to scare the doc away like you have
done so many other before him right?
Don't worry he doesn't like you, (nobody does not even your mom) If he says
anything good, its because he is afraid you will bite his head off.

Tell your doc to log onto this newsgroup, give him a book the sized of the
yellowpages with all your different nicks
let him see how disturbed you really are

and I can promise you, he will have you in a straight jacket in no time!


Last post.. fuk off now, you hear?
