I have an old laptop that would struggle when running Karma (pre Jan 2012 Karma). I had to send my newer/faster laptop in to have a hinge replaced under warranty, so I decided to see what I could do with the old laptop.

1) I formatted and installed Win7, OEM, 32 bit, downloaded ALL updates and installed Karma and ONLY Karma. The CPU was around 40% and would slow down when doing anything else. It worked fine, but was slower than I wanted.

2) I formatted and installed XP Pro, OEM, SP2, 32 bit, and installed ZERO updates, then installed Karma. Karma found the needed programs (ie: installer & dotnet Framework). The CPU was around 6 to 12% and ran like a rocket. No crashes, no lag, NOTHING wrong at all. I went into services and disabled wireless so it can't recieve XP updates.

I am with Chrisavis that Karma is the best and easiest to use, and crash free.

so these pirates that claim to have 250,000 songs have over 200,000 duplicates???? WOW!!!

So they really only need about 10% of the hard drive space that they are using if they were to get rid of all of the duplicates? 100 GB instead of needing a 1TB Hard drive is a big difference. I can't imagine the time it would take to go through a collection of that size to delete all of the duplicate tracks. I guess that's why the pirates don't bother to do it. I was at one guys show who had a laptop set up as his song book and he must have had at least 50 different versions of the song "MY WAY". You could sing a different version each week for a whole year and never sing with the same track twice. LOL


That's correct. I have software to go through and identify duplicate songs, and move them to another folder, if desired. For instance, if you wanted to add another library. The best way to begin doing so is using the duplicate songs from your primary library.


What is that software called and is it available?
