Thanks for the replay .. I looked for error in Event viewer but didn't find any. The actual behavior is it sits in the Task bar won't open but it Processes the Memory usage is kinda of dtable like 24,234 K doesn't change from that. The program doesn't say non-responding I tried to uninstall and reinstall couple of times and checked in different Windows Profile

are you using a Winamp skin with a .wal extension by any chance? Just wondering because I got some errors in W7 with .wal skins that I didn't get with .wsz skins. I never got to the bottom of it but it seemed to have something to do with skin scripting or something. It's just one thing you can try to see if it starts working.

Sweet ... I got it to work.. I renamed C:\Program Files\Winamp\Plugins\DSP_SPS to C:\Program Files\Winamp\Plugins\DSP_SPS_old then tried ...Magic it opened
When you told about skins i renamed that first then i though about plugins .. Thanks a lot for your effort

Yes it does work, been using it since the RC of Win 7 (and have it playing right now). Also just came across this plugin that allows it to work with Aero Peek,
