Computer Lockup when Ripping CD's
========================================
I rebooted, reinstalled, uninstalled, reinstalled, re-downloaded, and reinstalled.
I have even re-installed my OS on a new Hard disk. This occures on Version 8.x and the new 9.x beta.
No change though.
Then I am ripping an Audio CD to MP3 on my hard disk the computer will lock up.
Usually about half way through the CD, but sometimes on the first song too.
I have tried having it rip to a second drive location and that does not help.
I have tried moving my swap file to another disk and that does not help.
Here are my system specs:
Windows XP Professional SP1
AMD XP 2200 (Boxed)
512 MB 333MHz DDR Kingston ValueRAM (Single Stick)
MSI KT3 Ultra2 Motherboard (NON-RAID)
VisionTek Geforce4 TI 4600 128MB
SoundBlaster Live 5.1 Gamer
3Com 3C905c-TX NIC
LSI Logic MegaRAID i4 (IDE Raid Controller)
Artec 48x12x48 CDRW
Sony DVD-ROM 16X (model: DDU 1621)
Maxtor 20 Gig Operating System Drive
Maxtor 20 Gig Swap File Drive
-Raid Stripe Set with Parity-
Four Maxtor 80 Gig Drives in Stripe Set
I am using ALL Microsoft Certified Drivers on all my hardware.
Please let me know what I can do to fix this problem.
I purchased this software two days ago thinking it was the answer to my prayers. But, it has become the nightmare keeping me up at night.
Thank you in advance,
Stephen Christie
