Whew! I have to say that I've been trying to get this newer version of Sonicstage installed on my Vaio for the longest of time, but hadn't been able to for reasons unknown. I ran into this thread because all of the problems that are being discussed here were the exact same ones occurring on my machine as well, down to the error codes. I tried every trick mentioned on this forum to alleviate the problem (especially the registry tricks), but it persisted. Finally I just decided to do a system restore with the factory install cd's (which rolled my Sonicstage back to 2.x). I installed the new sonicstage software without uninstalling the old one's and eveything went smoothly. I have to reinstall a lot of stuff, but otherwise, I'm happy. I also wish I decided on it sooner. Thanks for your help guys. System Specs: Sony VAIO PCVRX951 (P4 - 2.66GHZ) 1GB RAM Windows XP Home (rolled back to sp 1) Geforce 4 MX440 (64MB) MD Units: MZ-R700 (with hack) DS-HMD1 HI-MD Portable USB Drive [records data or music to HI-MD/MD discs]
