Christopher Posted October 24, 2004 Report Share Posted October 24, 2004 Welcome to the forums, Co-T. How to properly reinstall NetMD: WARNING: If you use a Sony VAIO with preinstalled software provided by Sony or use other software developed by Sony, do not follow the procedure below. 1. Uninstall all OpenMG related software via the Add/Remove Programs control panel and reboot as necessary. This includes, but is not limited to, OpenMG 2.2, related 'Limited Patches' and the 'Secure Module', SonicStage 1.x/2.x, Simple Burner 1.x/2.x, and software by RealNetworks. Make sure that you unplug your unit before doing so. 2. If you run Windows XP/Windows 2000 Professional, proceed to delete the following directories: "Documents and SettingsAll UsersApplication DataSony Corporation", "Program FilesCommon FilesSony Shared", "Program FilesSony". 3. Start -> Run -> regedit. The 'Registry Editor' utility should appear on your screen. Delete the references to OpenMG located under 'HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareSony Corporation' and 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareSony Corporation' by right-clicking on the entries. 4. Disabling any anti-virus software that is running in the background to free up some resources [if necessary]. Update your installation of Windows at Microsoft Windows Update (windowsupdate.microsoft.com). For Windows 2000 Professional users, you are recommended to upgrade to Service Pack 3 or later. Make sure that your unit is disconnected and install the latest build of SonicStage 2.x from Sony Connect/Sony Connect Europe. The drivers for Sony units will automaticaly be installed. (If you use a Panasonic or Sharp Hi-MD/NetMD unit, install your drivers before you install the actual software!) Restart if prompted to do so; if not, it is still recommended that you do so. Plug in your unit, and start SonicStage 2.x. A Windows Hotfix (KB840987) conflicts with Omgjbox.exe - if you are experiencing problems and do not need the functionality of the Hotfix, rollback the fix.

Eebo Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 I have the same problem. I tried instructions above, but those didn't help. My Sonic Stage freezes when I'm trying to send mp3 files to my MZ-NH700. I also have NET-MD707 and the same problem. Omgjbox.exe uses all cpu time. When I installed from the CD I did get with my MZ-NH700, the Simple Burner worked when I transfered music straight from the music CD, but Sonic Stage freezed with mp3s. I hope somebody can help with this problem. I have Windows XP Pro SP2 with all available updates. Also next component are installed with Sonic Stage: SonicStage : 2.2.00.09020 SonicStage Add-on for Connect : 2.2.00.08230 OpenMG Secure Module : 4.0.00.05270 MagicGate Memory Stick Device : 4.0.00.06170 NW-E2, NW-E3, NW-E5 and NW-E8P : 4.0.00.06170 OpenMG CD : 4.0.00.06170 CD Walkman : 4.0.00.06170 Hi-MD : 4.0.00.06170 Music Clip, NW-S4, NW-E7 and NW-E10 : 4.0.00.06170 HDWM : 4.0.00.06170 Net MD : 4.0.00.06170 EMD Plug-in: 1.1.0.84 Playback Plug-in : 1.0.0.53 CD-R Writing Module(ATRAC CD/Audio CD/MP3 CD) : 2.2.00.08230 Px Engine: 1.6.14.507 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eebo Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 I installed another Windows XP to different hard disk with SP1 and now transfer works again. Don't know if problem is in some windows updates or some other programs I have installed, but I think I will try to update that new XP also to SP and check if transfer works after that.

ikerCLoN Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Hi all! I'm experimenting some issues when I want to transfer music files to my 505 unit. I've tried the original OpenMG 2.2, and also downloaded SimpleBurner and SonicStage 2. When my PC begins to send info to the NetMD unit -or importing files, the program (the three I've mentioned above) crashes and closes (error in omgjbox.exe). I've uninstalled all stuff several times, but I'm always suffering the same error. Have you got any solution for this? It would be very appreciated. Thanks!

Christopher Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 State your operating system, system specs, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikerCLoN Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 Thanks, Kurisu. I've WindowsXP with all updates, included the SP2. Celeron 1,6 Ghz laptop, 256 mb RAM, etc etc. It's a bit strange, because before my last disk format, all worked OK... well, not OK at all, because I did not find the OpenMG cd, and I installed several versions of SonicStage, and it didn't recognize my 505 unit... ... but with OpenMG all worked perfectly, and I had the same operating system, the same laptop computer, and the same updates (I've checked it a Microsoft). I did not know why I can run ANY NetMD transfer software in this computer. Do you know if anybody had the same problem? Because I haven't any hope that this will be repaired... sigh... Thanks for your time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 Have you uninstalled via the directions in the NetMD faq found within the NetMD forum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikerCLoN Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 Yes, kurisu. All uninstalled and cleaned as the faq says. Several times. And still the problem: SonicStage does not allow me to import any kind of files, because the file omgjbox.exe crashes... and not codec pack is installed in the computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 Have you tried Simple Burner 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eebo Posted December 7, 2004 Report Share Posted December 7, 2004 Here's update for my problem. Now have two WindowsXP installations. With the new installation file tranfer works fine and with older one omgjbox.exe freezes. I updated the new installation with SP2 and it still worked. I uninstalled SP2 from older one, still freezes. Also uninstalled Norton SystemWorks from the older one, didn't help. Maybe I'll next try to unistall some other programs and see if it helps. I'll be back. :smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikerCLoN Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Thanks for the hints, Eebo, because I can't use any transfer soft (OpenMG, SonicStage, SimpleBurner...), and I don't want to format the HD again. I'm trying to find out if any program is causing these troubles with omgjbox.exe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
