When i enter a folder with avi files in, win XP start to list movie lenght and resolution for each avi clip in the folder, and it makes my computer work slower, if i run a Xvid it lags because explorer is listing the avi clips in the background, and if i close the folder the movie stops lagging. Can i turn of the function so that xp does not read the lenght and res. for the movies in the explorer window?

Thanks in Advance, Anders

you can try this:
1.Go to 'View' menu in Explorer
2.Click 'Choose Details'
3.Unclick 'Duration' and 'Dimensions'in the Details box

Hope this helps

well if you do that it still opens the avi's but it dont display the info.. but i just found out that if you do the "delete avi win xp pro fix" it also makes the avi info go away :)
