Since I am not able to install Softsqueeze 3.4 (Slimserver 6.5.2 installed with no problems) on my Vista Ultimate PC, I need some suggestions as to what I can use to play music from my FLAC library on my pc. I use foobar2000 for my usb attached headphone amp and that works well. I do not want to use Windows Media Player because; a)it doesn't support FLAC and b)on my previous XP machine, it did some weird things as far as tagging my files.
For informational purposes, the problem I am having with Softsqueeze is that when installing (either from run or from a downloaded file) Softsqeeze tells me it can't find MSVCR71.dll and then it tells me to point it to the JAVA Runtime Environment. I do this and it tells me the JRE is corrupted and needs to be re-installed (it doesn't). It then tells me EXE4J_JAVA_HOME needs to be pointed at JRE or another location.
Amazingly enough, this is the ONLY application I have had any trouble with using VISTA. You could have knocked me over with a sledgehammer.
