And it still takes 5-10 seconds to load a video with it in Vista. Very
weird. I've read that it may have something to do with having an SATA drive,
which I do, but then so do millions of other people.

Loads almost instantaneously here.
Also, only have SATA drives.

Quicktime is as bloated and horrible as vista itself...

I use quicktime alternative that has all the basic files the same (codecs)
but is smaller, and even lets media player play mov files.

the nightmare combination: vista, quicktime, real player, nero 7.x and
norton!

YOU DONT NEED ANYTHING ELSE TO MAKE YOUR PC CRAWL!!! lol

I'd so love to know why. In XP it was essentially instant on the same
machine. Other players are instant for AVIs or whatever else. It's just QT
in Vista that's artificially slow for some.

Yeah, but I need my Quicktime to watch my movie trailers and watch that
lovely H.264... yum.

I use quicktime alternative that has all the basic files the same (codecs)
but is smaller, and even lets media player play mov files.

Nero 7.8.5 is running fine here on Vista. I haven't needed Real Player
for about 100 years now, does anyone still use it? QuickTime is the
most poorly named app in the history of computing. There is nothing
quick about it, but it does use a lot of time.

LOL I use Quicktime Alternative also, it sure does NOT let WMP play .mov
files. Did I miss something?
