Windows 7 Beta update available for MP3 bug

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

Hey all you Windows 7 Beta testers out there.

Microsoft has released an update for the Media Center bug in Beta 1 (Build 7000).  The bug has a nasty tendency to eat the beginning of some mp3 files if they also contained meta-data.

If your Windows installation has already chewed up some of your files MS notes that you may be able to recover them with the “Previous Version” backup that may be automatically stored (a system restore point and drive protection will have to be on).

Here is the link to the MS download page
