Virtual Jukebox finished!
eightbit:
I should be able to tell you later today if a touch screen works. I'm working on setting up a computer with one right now. I'm having trouble getting the sound card to work. There is no reason why the touchscreen shouldn't work perfectly. In full screen mode you can use the mouse but the mouse cursor is hidden. This is exactly what you'd want for a touch screen.
I'm not having trouble with scrolling cd covers but I did have trouble with win2k. I tried loading it on 3 different win2k professional and every time I ran setup it told me it needed to upgrade system files and reboot. I did that and it told me the same thing again. The first XP pro system I put it on it worked right off the bat.
Back to working on my sound card, I'll post an update later tonight or tommorrow.

Well, I got the fullscreen working. Instead of selecting view full screen after the program is running I selected start up fullscreen and it worked.
Looking forward to hearing your touchscreen results....can you give me some info on the touchscreen you are using? Such as, size, brand, cost, lcd or crt.
Thanks.

I fixed my sound card problem. The mother board had a sound chipset on it but did not have the daughterboard on it to actually plug speakers into it. Once I disabled that I was able to get the new sound card working.
The touchscreen is incredible with this software, its definately the way to go. The only complaint I could have is the buttons are a little small on my 15" monitor. You can also play the songs directly by touching them with your finger but they are even smaller. Even with that I am EXTREMELY ;D happy with how it works.
The touch screen I am using came out of a gift registry where I work.

I'm going to cut that down so that its just the width of the monitor and about 3 foot tall and make that a jukebox. The monitor doesn't have a case on it since its built for mounting into a cabinet so its perfect for this with a nice bezel on the front. The monitor was made by a company called ELO who makes some great touch screens. Its reather large, not much bigger height and width than the 15" screen but its about 18"s deep.
I'll get better pictures of the monitor and kiosk tomorrow and post them. Its 3:30am and I need to go to bed... :P

Is there anyway to install the software manually? I am trying to install under Windows 98SE and the install program stops responding during the final update and never completes the install. I shut everything else down and have tried to install on Drive D: and C: but it still hangs up. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Tried it on another computer with W98SE and it hung up in the final part of the install again. When try to run the application it gives me a fault with msdxm.ocx. That is about all I have found out so far.
