Hi guys I had a similar problem. I'd done all the stuff in the instructions including the crucial backup of the directory right up to the Winamp stage, but then when I add songs that's when I have a problem. When I right click and send the songs, a "cpnnecting-do not disconnect" message comes up and after a while it stops, then the screen goes blank. When I disconnect it, having gone to "Safely Remove Hardware", I get the message "No songs detected. Use complaint software". I know what you're going to say, I must use Connect or Sonicstage, but Sonicstage failed in installation and therefore I'm using the plugin. So what could be the problem? I rip my songs as ".wav" to the player, could that be the problem?
