For the last 3-4 versions at least since 369. Basically my first version. MJ will lockup when it tries to do the CDDB of YADB. It will lock my whole computer.
THis happened when I had my shuttle ak31, so I got a new abit nv7-133r, but it locks as well. the ak31 locked on win98 and winXP. the nv7 is locking the same way on win2K.
I really feel strongly that it is somehow related to the CDROM which is a Toshiba XM-6002B and its a 16X I believe. I certainly can not rip from it because it locks up as well. Remember were talking about bringing windows 2K down. That is a hugh task which leads me to believe its not a deadlock but a race condition.
the recording lockup had the cdrom light on steady and the harddisk light on steady, but I can ctrl-alt-del and close MJ to stop that one.
the DB lockup is unstoppable.
any ideas?
