Problem playing/ripping CD

<< < (4/5) > >>

thats strange as i am running mjb in win98 / me compat. mode and it is working here no run time error.  just still have the orignal problem.

did you tweak your winxp computer?  get the  xteq set up program  and use it to tweak you system i think you might need to turn up your stacks.  


and you might need some file from ms.

if you used  the jv16 regestry cleaner on your computer there have been some reports of that messing up computers.

talemyn:
I wanted to chime in and let "the powers that be" know that there is yet one more user who is running into these probelms (and it didn't used to happen . . . unfortunately, I can't tie the beginning of it not working to a specific change in configuration).  Here is my info:

Media Jukebox PLUS 8.0.399
Install Path: C:\Audio\Programs\Media Jukebox\

CPU: Intel Pentium 4 1793 MHz MMX
Memory: Total - 523 MB, Free - 293 MB
OS: Microsoft Windows XP  Workstation 5.1 Service Pack 1 (Build 2600)

Internet Explorer: 6.0.2800.1106
ComCtl32.dll: 6.00.2800.1106
Shlwapi.dll: 6.00.2800.1106
Shell32.dll: 6.00.2800.1106
wnaspi32.dll: Internal ASPI Layer

. . . also, the drive is a combo CDR/DVD drive, but, like I said, it has worked before, but consistantly does not work now.

I get the gobble-di-gook when it tries to load the information . . . while loading this "information", the drive makes a clicking noise and sounds like it is skipping or having trouble reading or something.

Same error occurs when running in Win 2000 compatability mode and crash occurs when you click on the CD in the Win 98 compatability mode.

Playing in WinAmp or Windows Media Player is fine . . . reading and burning with IBM RecordNow works fine (no other burning software being used).

Would love to know what the heck is going on here.

Thanks!

man another one??  talemyn you say it just started and you cant    conferm it with a conf change?  i am thinking there might be some truth to that rumor i heard acouple months ago about  ther riaa  making virus's to mess up mp3  collections on our hard drives?  

but  that is what it seems like is going on as only the  fonts seem to messing up on everyones.  

of course this mjb8 is old now and the MC 9 might have this trouble fixed.  or the virus (if any) blocked.  might just be a good reason to go to mc9.

JimH:
The problem may also be related to other software that writes the CD drive.  Nero and Adaptec versions  have both had problems in the past.  Try uninstalling other software.

talemyn:
My problems started about a month ago (give or take a week).  The problem is, I hadn't used MJ8 for any CD related things for a while, so there a bunch of changes that I had made to my computer in the mean time making it hard to narrow it down to a single "The trouble began after I installed/changed/used <insert program name here>."  It is possible that the problem began after I started using my CD burning program (IBM RecordNow), but I just don't know . . . too much other "stuff" changed on my system around the same time.  Additionally, the program was always on my computer (longer than MJ8, actually), so why would it have started causing problems only after I began burning with it?

As for removing other software, doesn't that seem a little unrealistic?  I use mine burning software for many other burning uses than I believe MJ8 can do (or it does them faster/more easily).  It doesn't seem like I should have to give up that functionality just to read tracks on a CD . . .. especially if I don't know that it will fix the problem . . .
