Mojo263 Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 Hello, I'm new to the boards, but I've been having a problem with Sonic Stage since I bought my Mini Disc player.I have a MZ-NH600D, and since the day I bought it I haven't been able to use Sonic Stage at all. Since the first time I installed the software, I get a dialogue box that pops up telling me I have to restart the program after it updates the database. As soon as I hit the ok button the program immediately closes. I've tried working through Sony's customer support and they have been less than helpful with my problem, I have since gone through multiple downloads and updates of the software and to no avail. Today I downloaded the Sonic Stage 3.0 and I keep getting the same result with every option I try.I'm at my wits end looking for some other software that I can use to transfer music to my mini disc player, and nothing I download works. Is there anything I can do?Thanks for any help in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dex Otaku Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 You probably need to update Windows. [Most specifically, the MDAC, aka MS Data Access Components, which are for managing databases.]As per the posting guidelines [at the top of this forum], could you give us more info on what version of Windows you're running, servicepack level, &c.?

Mojo263 Posted March 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 I'm running Windows XP Home edition, recently downloaded SP2, Installed Sonic Stage 3.0, I have a pentium 2.6ghz with a 533 fsb, 1.0 gb of ram, and I'm not sure about the codecs installed I'm reseaching that but I have to get to work so I'm going to have to do that when I get back.

gigolo Posted March 15, 2005 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 (edited) I'm running Windows XP Home edition, recently downloaded SP2, Installed Sonic Stage 3.0, I have a pentium 2.6ghz with a 533 fsb, 1.0 gb of ram, and I'm not sure about the codecs installed I'm reseaching that but I have to get to work so I'm going to have to do that when I get back.←You can use Microsoft CompCheck to check your MDAC installation.CompChek has found "MDAC 2.8 /SP1 on Windows XP/SP2", and I still have the same problem.it tells that the registrey key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{039EA4C0-E696-11d0-878A-00A0C91EC756}"is missing, I'm going to try to reinstall MDAC.[EDIT]When trying to reinstall MDAC, an error message says that installation of MDAC 2.8 RTM is impossible because it is already a part of Windows."

Mojo263 Posted March 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 To follow up, I've updated windows to find there are no updates for me to download. I've downloaded and tried to install MDAC, but an error message has told me that it's already part of Windows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
