I have made many CDs using MJ 8.293 on this computer.  However, now when I click Burn CD, MJ crashes.  It's on an XP box, so I can't tell what module the error is occurring in.  

I have re-installed MJ, same error.

Settings->Options->CD writer detects my DVD/CD-RW just fine.  Generic is checked and greyed out.

Media Jukebox PLUS 8.0.293
Install Path: C:\Program Files\J River\Media Jukebox\

CPU: Intel Pentium III 762 MHz MMX
Memory: Total - 523 MB, Free - 73 MB
OS: Microsoft Windows XP  Workstation 5.1  (Build 2600)

Internet Explorer: 6.0.2600.0000
ComCtl32.dll: 6.00.2600.0000
Shlwapi.dll: 6.00.2600.0000
Shell32.dll: 6.00.2600.0000
wnaspi32.dll: 4.57 (1008) , ASPI for Win32 (95/NT) DLL, Copyright © 1989-1997 Adaptec, Inc.
Aspi32.sys: 4.57 (1008)

Can anyone help me debug this?

[JimH]

Please see our FAQ on CD burning and try updating ASPI.

[SeanC]

Thanks, JimH - I will.

Oh, weird.  I just noticed that there was nothing in my Now Playing queue.  When I add something to my Now Playing queue and then click 'Burn CD', no crash.

Also, the crash occurs before the "Audio or Data?" dialog appears.

I can't reproduce this problem here. Anyone else?
Here are the steps I took:

- start MJ
- click on "Playing Now" (it's empty)
- click on the CD burner icon

It asked "audio or data?" and continued normally.
Does this specific sequence cause a crash on your system?

Yes, try this:

Open MJ
Clear Now Playing
Set to Mini-me (I run lower-right, not sure of the version).
Close MJ with the little X
---
Open MJ (opens in mini-me, lower-right)
Click the little maximize/up arrow in lower-right's top-right.
click Burn CD

Crashes every time for me.  If MJ opens into normal-big-me state, clicking Burn CD doesn't crash it.  If it opens to mini-me and gets maximized, it crashes.  I also have a (registered) Slide Show running too, although it isn't actually displayed/visible.

Thanks.  That mini-me thing was the ticket.

It'll be fixed shortly.

Thanks again.
