Had you tried closing WinAmp and restarting? Same goes for Jaws? Jaws
has a nasty habit when running for long times, on my system anyway,
of mucking up application key strokes. I've had it disable some hot
keys, and otherwise not red properly if I hadn't shut it down and
restarted it. I suspect when you restored teh reboot of Jaws and
perhaps yrou system helped. If you hadn't, in the future I'd try just
rebooting your system to see if that works. If you'd done this,
perhaps you installed another program or driver just prior to this happening?

HI. I just did a system restore, and it fixed this problem. But I thought
I would ask about this, just in case someone might have an idea, and I can
avoid doing whatever I did again.
Today, I was wanting to start a new playlist. I wasn't able to get rid of
the playlist already loaded in Winamp. I thought a control N would clear
it, but it didn't. OK. So, I tried a number of different keystrokes. I
tried control F4, and a few others I don't' recall.
When all was said and done, when I would go to the playlist, it wouldn't
read the tracks anymore. It would be blank, or it would act like it was
trying to read the ddesktop. I checked, and it said my skins were still set
to classic, so apparently I didn't change that setting. I don't know what I
did to mess it up, but it was a doozie.
Any thoughts? I mean it's all well and good now since the system restore
seems to have fixed it. But that was a disturbing turn of events that I
wouldn't have expected. It goes to show that just pressing keys to see what
will happen is not such a great idea as some advise to do.
This is version 5.581. Anything newer I already tried and it was a total
disaster, so I don't intend to ever upgrade Winamp again until I'm forced
to.
