Sorry - got a little panicked there. My 110k tracks used 200,000kb, which is .2GB. My system locked up with no memory left, which is why I thought it was 2GB. Anyway, it's enough to push my box over the edge to autism. I deleted the entire squeezebox directory and reinstalled, and now it's good. I think I'll look at adding another stick of memory if my WHS 1.0 box will support it. "My server's working great! Let's change something!" Sigh.
