    sometimes it takes 10 sec, sometimes 20 sec, and sometimes 1 min! And 5.01 loaded at a reasonable time...

    i have a AMD XP 2500+ (1.8 GHz), Win XP, 512 MB RAM, and a 80 GB HD so it should load fine. Is there anyway to tweak winamp to load faster?

    I had the exact same problem with 2.91 but 5.02 is lightning fast for me.

    I think it has to do with bad plugins try un-installing winamp and then delete the folder so it kills all your plugins. then install it again and see if it is quicker.

    I dont have any plug in installed, and after trying a lot of times, NOTHING beats Winamp 2, i use Winamp 5 because of the skinz, but Winamp 2 is for sure the fastest....
