I have the same problem, i read the forum, i installed Sonicstage 3.0 but the error message is always there, now its something like: "Cannot locate the files required to open the database file. Exiting SonicStage", and theres nothing i can do but to accept. Any ideas? Im going nuts! I installed 3.0 over 1.5 (my cd is old), the only thing that just occurred to me is to delete everything, install 2.3 and then install 3.0 over it. I just hope I wont have to make aaaaaall of the 3.0 downloading process again...
