When playing music on Media Player, my music plays fine up until the last few
seconds of the track, then it starts to skip. anyone any ideas how to fix the
problem? I'm using Vista Home Premium.

You are probably using a PC/Laptop with an onboard SigmaTel audio chip.
To fix this problem do the following:

Control panel > Sound > Speakers/Headphones > Enhancements:

Select "Disable all Enhancements"

That should fix it.

Cyclo,
I had the identical problem with my new desktop Dell PC (Windows Vista
Business Edition, WMP11).   You solved the problem!  Thank you so much!

Liz you're welcome, I'm glad this thread is still helping others out
there even up to now. FWIW though, I recently built a desktop with yet
another onboard Sigmatel sound chip and there was no skipping.
