JimH,
I appreciate your assistance. I came home this evening and disabled simultaneous ripping and encoding. I was able to rip without crashing in several formats. If I re enabled the feature it would crash every time regardless if format. I went ahead and uninsulated, cleared the registry and reinstalled.
I can now rip if I don't do simultaneous encode which I could live with, but 1 cd that I tried has a track that shows "failed" when I try to rip it out of either drive (secure mode). The program will hang when that happens and when I try to close the rip action window, I crash the system.
