find no appreciable difference in performance between FAT and NTFS, or
between different block sizes in either, when reading/writing 10 or 20
audio files simultaneously.

Exaxtly my point. Editing BOOT.INI even with the GUI
interface (if you can find it!) is not something I would feel
comfortable recommending to the average computer user.

Try it. Windows XP won't LET you save an edited version until
you've renamed your current BOOT.INI, thus creating a backup.

There is a text mode command called attrib .... O;-) ... changing what
OS to boot as default can be done from a subpage of the System
settings and is easiest done there.


Or a right-click and 'Properties' on hte file from Explorer.

Hey people - off-topic. I normally wouldn't say anything, but
a bazillion posts on the topic here is getting annoying.

Specifying that a post is off-topic for a group's topic is on-topic.

Do you not get to see the thread subject with yournewsreader ? If not, get
a new one that supports that basic function, or learn to read subject lines
and decide whether or not you want to read the post.

If you don't like the topic, move your eyes down the list until you find a
topic that meets your approval and read that instead.

The subject of the post is on-topic for those of us who produce audio with
that equipment.

By your reasoning people shouldn't post about Neumann mics if YOU don''t
happen to use one.

There is no gui access to the "system" flag, and there is no access to
the file until you toggle it.

If this was only about system attributes and how to unset them in a
windows nt environment, then of course you would right about this. But
is is only 3274 permutations ago the question was about a DAW .... O;-)
.... and DAW issues are probably also rec.audio.tech issues nowadays.
