tommypeters Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Delete the following directories:... ..."Program Files/Common Files/Sony Shared"This can be somewhat risky, files may be shared with other Sony programs. While one of course would want to delete all programs Sony has been involved in, having a Sony Ericsson phone that might not be the best thing to do. Better rename the directory and delete it another time if nothing bad has happened to any program. Can someone give a directory list of what files SonicStage/OpenMG put there? I have AVLib, OpenMG, StopMusicServer, PD & Visualizer. Looking closer, it sure looks like these all must be Minidisc related...I have a directory, "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\DRM", is that also involved with SonicStage/OpenMG? It's a hidden dir, with the files drmv2.lic, drmstore.hds, v2ks.sec, v2ks.bla, drmv2.sst and drmv2.lic.I had both a "Documents and Settings/All Users/Application Data/SonicStage" and a "Documents and Settings/All Users/SonicStage" dir...OpenMG drivers can't be uninstalled without a mandatory reboot - you don't get the choice of "Restart Now"/"Restart Later" as "real" programs gives...

tommypeters Posted August 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 I have totally uninstalled SonicStage, Personal Audio Driver and OpenMG, according to instructions in the FAQ. Rebooted, installed SonicStage 3.2, rebooted, connected a NetMD 910 which was recognized by Windows, started SonicStage.SonicStage can't find a database (which is OK) and wants to copy/create a blank one. After I press OK the program just exits.According to the FAQ I should right-click MDAC.INF in \winows\inf and select "install", so I do that. It asks for the XP CD, so I insert that. It then asks for the XP sp1 CD, so I insert that... The installation completes.I will now restart the computer again and see if anything is better with SonicStage.

tommypeters Posted August 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 I have now installed Simpleburner, rebooted, connected my NH600 and formatted a Hi-MD disk, gotten the NH600 recognised as a USB device, rebooted again and then opening SimpleBurner.I exit the programs that may be problematic for SimpleBurner and put an Audio CD in my DVD-ROM player. SB says there's no Audio CD in that drive, it doesn't help switching to the DVD Burner or changing audio CD. I can try playing the audio CD in Foobar2k and it works, I then exit and try SB but it says there's no audio CD in the drive.Any help?I have Win XP SP1 (no, I have a prog that doesn't like sp2, so can't upgrade right now)SS3.2 and SB 2.0.04.18080.I'm not sure if any codec packs have been installed on the system or not, I can't find anything that's installed anyway so either it's removed or hasn't been installed. For DivX I use VLC which doesn't need codecs external from the program.I have my EU NH600 connected with a formatted Hi-MD disc inside.Athlon XP2500+, 512MB RAM (will be 1GB tomorrow), USB2.0Anti-virus, Symantec is running, will turn that off and try again.

tommypeters Posted August 10, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 (edited) No, closing down the anti-virus protection (unloading the service) didn't help, still can't find any audio CD placed in any drive... Moved this SimpleBurner problems to its' own thread:http://forums.minidisc.org/index.php?showtopic=11618 Edited August 10, 2005 by tommypeters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
