                  Music

In order to get a little pleasure and break  the tiresomeness you can listen on music while you fills in your registry. You can listen on files in format *.mid, *.wav and MP3 files.

Think on that playing musicfiles of formats MP3 takes lot of CPU power and can do that the program Archive 2000 picks.

When you adds files in filelist chose to copy/erase them at filtransactions. You will assure that these musicfiles exists in a special directory and not missing when you starts the program.

Musicfiles is played up in random order and it no matter which order you place these in the filelist.

Obviously is needed it that You have a soundcard installed in your computer in order to you'll be able to listen on the music. Archive 2000 tries self at each startup check that a such exists and works. Can not Archive 2000 initiate a soundcard goes it not that play music. If as is fallet and you have a soundcard installed as check your configurations.

The first gone you starts Archive 2000 and under presumption that you have a soundcard comes a midi-fil that is played automatically. However just the first gone then receives you self chose files that play up. Have you no midifiles it exists a lot  on Internet of these. Just to load home!
