New SD card, WMP skips!
I just got a 2GB SanDisk Unltra II memoruy card to use with my i830w. I have been getting random skipping every couple minutes. My previous SD was a 1GB SanDisk and I didn't have those issues with it. Is it the extra memory that's causing the problem? Are there any adjustments I need to make? Please let me know. Thanks!

I think this is the registry key to look at:

HKLM\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Class\SDMemory_C lass
*BlockTransferSize - 64 (Dword)
(Specifies the maximum amount of blocks to send per bus transfer.)

*If you experience skipping audio try 32 or 16.

Still having the same issue. I tried 32 and 16. I now have the 4GB high speed Transcend card. Any other ideas?

lol you keep upgrading, go with an 8gb now. j/k do you have other programs running in the background? programs taking up alot of free space? this might cause it.

What player are you using? If you can switch players, try Mortplayer, which does a good job of buffering - no skips

Yeah, I keep "upgrading", but continue to have issues! I bought the 2 gig card before I knew the i830w could handle 4 gigs. I paid practically the same amount for them both!

To answer your question, no, I'm not running anything in the background except for ActiveSync for push e-mail. I thought it may have been a RAM issue, too, but it's not. None of this happened with my 1 gig SanDisk!

I'm using WMP. Where can I find Mortplayer?

I had similar problems... I tried various things. I believe what finally worked was formating the card using XP with these settings
quick format
fat
default block size (?)

Put the card in and reboot no more skipping
