Thewyzewun Posted October 30, 2005 Report Share Posted October 30, 2005 Hi I've got Sonicstage 3.2 (I've tried it both from here and from Connect's site) and despite repeatedly uninstalling it and reinstalling it it continues to tell me the database is corrupt or missing. I press OK and then it says do I want to make a new one or close, so I tell it to make a new one and nothing happens.I'm running WinXP Pro SP2 and here's what I've tried already:Last time I reinstalled it I: Uninstalled it all in Add/Remove Programs (inc SimpleBurner, OpenMG Limited Patch, Add-on something or other, another OpenMG one and Sonicstage itself), then I went into Disk Cleanup and deleted all my temp and internet temp and internet files and cookies, then I went into \docs&settings\all usrs, family and default usr and within each of them went into app data\sony corp and deleted everything.Then I restarted, and reinstalled MDAC (remember I have SP2 so no need to download) by going into \win\inf\mdac.inf right clicking and telling it to install, then browsing to the winxp sp2 disc in the drive (legit copy) and letting it reinstall. Then I restarted and went to connect store, registered from scratch and downloaded the s/w, restarted again and tried to load it and it still said "Cannot Find the Database file, or the database is corrupted. Click OK to recover the database. Click Cancel to exit the program". I've tried both, obviously Cancel just gives me the same error next time I open it, and OK takes me to another msg "Cannot recover the database file. Click OK to copy an empty database file. Click Cancel to exit the program."If I press Cancel and then re-open the program, click OK again I get this msg again, and if I press OK I notice in Task Manager (running alongside for monitoring) that nothing happens, but SsDbConnection, SSScsiSV and SSAAD (I'm pretty sure these are the processes relating to SS) do nowt, and nothing happens. Even if I end process all them and reset SS I get the same error.Can anyone help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
