Hi all just found this place by using a yahoo search, looks like a great place to to get results to questions.

here's my problem I have been having problems recently with Sonic Stage when I click the icon to get it to start I keep getting

Updating SonicStgae Database

Below that is says

Sonicstage will be restarted after after the updating is completed

So I then click ok, it looks like it's trying to update as something pops up quickly like a status bar then disaapears also looks like the sonicstage logo appears in the task bar for a second then vanishes, so I think it's completed I click sonicstage again and still no joy says the same as above, so I wait and wait yet it never restarts, it's getting annoying so I uninstalled it and reinstalled the latest version, still the same problems as mentioned above, tried again with Zonealarm Suite off and other spyware software I turned off in case of a conflict.

I looked for any XP updates that could resolve this issue downloaded all that I thought would apply again no joy.

I have XP with SP2, AMD Athlon 64+ 3700, 1 Gig Ram, Sonicstage 3.4

Any help would be much appreciated indeed :D

Thanks,

Sakic91.

Two possibilities:

First, try the MDAC repair tool in Downloads.

If that doesn't help, look through Zonealarm's settings and change them so it DOESN'T load on startup. Ditto with your other spyware programs. If they don't have obvious controls, you can do START/RUN msconfig and uncheck them from the Startup tab. Even shut off, they could be blocking something. Reboot, try the SonicStage business immediately, and restart Zonealarm and spyware blockers so you're secure again.

Thank you kindly for the reply A440

I tried that repair tool earlier and did not work, but your's was from another source and so far seems to be working again with all my anti virus and spyware running at startup so no need to tweak anything, I also did another fresh re install of sonicstage, so many thanks indeed as I can once again escape from the boredom of work and relax with my tunes :D

Many thanks again much appreciated indeed
