Hi, darany, there's a topic just like yours regarding the usb device detection under windows vista , here is the link:usb device detection under vista. Hopes you get some ideas from this topic maybe.

For the DAP's supllied SonicStage CP Installer CD I prefer to recommend. But maybe you guys should google the links of inoffiical SonicStage CP FullInstaller. For the unofficial SonicStage CP FullInstaller my solution might be available too.

Hi, pals, I've erver encountered the similar problem every time I inserted the connector of my NW-S705F into my PC's USB port and the SonicStage began to read the device info then the Omgjbox Error occured to the SonicStage 4.3. I fixed the problem just through modifying the SetupSS.ini file for no OpenMG Secure Module LimitedPatch installing. So far the SonicStage 4.3 runs well. As the OpenMG Secure Module LimitedPatch has been packaged into the official installation software, there's no chance to avoid installing it if you install the SonicStage 4.3 under the conduct of the official recommended instruction. How to install the SonicStage4.3 without installling the OpenMG Secure Module LimitedPatch? I'm gonna post my solution here. As the SonicStage 4.3 can be upgraded from the official internet site of sony service or they are supplied with your DAP's softeware CD, and the upgrade program for SonicStage is intelligent, I'd have to say the solution is only used for the users install the SonicStage 4.3 with the supplied DAP's software CD. If anybody else can obtain the entire installation software packages through the SonicStage upgrade program and rebuild your own setup scripts I'd like to say that's great, this is an effective way too, but it's so hard and complicated, if you really did it like this plz share your instruction or the entire obtained software, we would like to say thanks to you. Now let's begin my instruction. Hopes it can help you. 1.Locate the SetupSS.ini file for SonicStage4.3. Copy all the SonicStage4.3 installation software from your DAP's supplied CD to your own PC's harddisk, let's assume the saved directory is named to "D:\SS4.3". The SetupSS.ini file is right to be located in the directory "D:\SS4.3" and it's along with the file SetupSS.exe. 2.Modify the SetupSS.ini. Open the SetupSS.ini file with any of your favorite Text Editor, find all lines like this: "Dx,Wmf,Wmf9,Mdac,Msc,SetupReg,OmgSetup**,OmgLP,SsSetup,SsAddon**,DrvPA,PDInfo**,VideoDL,WmLaunch**", the double-asterisk(**) indicate the region you live in, i.e. JP, US, CA etc. or blank space. Delete the text "OmgLP," of this line. plz notice do not forget the last comma(,). Repeat this deleting action until all the likewise lines are modified. 3.Uninstall the previous version of the SonincStage if it has been installed. You should uninstall the sonicstage with the normal windows controlpanel uninstall program. 4.Uninstall the previous version of OpenMG Secure Model if if has been installed. Well, same as the uninstallation of SonicStage you should uninstall the OpenMG Secure Model with the normal windows controlpanel uninstall program too. 5.Restart your computer. 6.Delete the remain files belonging to the previous version of SonicStage and OpenMG Secure Module. Delete all the remain files manually. Do not forget the files under the directory "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Sony Shared" especially. 7.Reinstall the SonicStage4.3. Locate to the directory "D:\SS4.3", Just run the file SetupSS.exe, and be under the conduct of it. After it has been finished restart your computer. Okay, the instruction is finished. I hopes it's usefull to you.

Have you installed the 3rd party theme software for windows? If so, Uninstall the 3rd party theme first! Coz some of the 3rd party theme softwares for windows are in conflict with SonicStage.
