Hello everybody, first of all: Congratulations to this forum. Seems to be the only useful MD-Forum on web . So here is my first post. Although I read these board for hours and tried a lot, I haven't found an answer yet: When I plug my MD-Unit (Sony MZ-NH 700), I can select it in my WindowsExplorer, so I'm sure, that the connection is OK. If I start sonic stage (version 3.1, downloaded from the oficial link I found in this board), the Unit isn't recognized. I tried to re-install stage, following the introductions of this board (http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?showtopic=8071) but it doesn't work. When I got the Player, it worked for a few months. So I was very suprised that it doesn't work anymore form one day to another... Would be very nice, if you helped me 'cause I have no ideas anymore... Ahh... last but not least: I've an Athlon 1400, 768 ram Windows2k, Service Pack 4 SonicStage 3.1 Hope, you can help me and sorry for my bad englisch Greets Breadfan
