Glue Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 (edited) Hi guys,I got this Sony Network Walkman NW-E105 and i have to instal Sonic Stage 3.0. I tried this and it insalled the program without any problems, but when i want to start the program i get this error message "Cannot initialize OpenMG CD Manager" and i am forced to shut down the program. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling a couple of times but it doesn't work. So i downloaded 3.1 but i get the same problem again. I have all the requiremts on my pc that is ask for on the box. I run Windows XP home. Any suggestions? Edited June 23, 2005 by Glue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A440 Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 When you uninstalled did you completely uninstall with these instructions? http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?showtopic=8071SonicStage's uninstall can leave things behind. Also, once it is installed, if it doesn't work then use Sony's online installer and when it tells you that SS is already installed, tell it to install again anyway. For me with 3.1, that installed everything anew and it finally worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philipp Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 thank you for this hint.I never installed any Sony software. so i do not have to clean any previous installations. but i checked, if there are any directories, files or registry entries mentioned in the FAQ. I do not have.I have windows 2000 pro with service pack 4 on a vmware workstation 5.0. in this vmware i can access the NW-E103 as a memory stick. this means: i can copy files on it. I have a AMD Athlon 2800+, for wmware 256 MB RAM. USB 2.0. no USB devices during the installation process. i disabled my mcaffee 7.0 antivirus software. vmware-tools were still running. i don't want stop them for performance reason.I unplugged NW-E-103 and made a net-installation of SonicStage 3.2. i rebooted my workstation. then i installed simple burner 2.0.04.18080.then i started sonicstage and got the error message: "Cannot initialize OpenMG CD Manager".can anybody help me? or is there an other way to copy my mp3 on nw-e103, so that i can listen them there?thank you for any hint and help in advance!I think they want you to read this and then post details of your system specs and more detail of your problems.Good luck.Keith← Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Actually, I didn't even realize this isn't a Minidisc-related Sonicstage problem. Please post this at our new forum, http://www.atraclife.comI apologize for the confusion, I'll personally attend to your matter there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
