Hi-MD Software Problems

[mmp64]

I am having MAJOR problems with both SS2 and Simple Burner, using my new 600D. Anyone else experiencing any of these:

1) SS2 locks up when formatting a "standard" MD as Hi-MD;

2) SS2 locks up when transferring tracks to a disc in Hi-MD mode;

3) Simple Burner locks up when transferring.

I resinstalled but to no avail. I have a new PC - Pentium 4 with 1 GB of RAM. I never had these problems with SS 1.5 and NetMDs. I'm about ready to cancel my pre-order for the 900 and give up on MD period, though I've been a heavy user for 5+ years. I have no patience for poorly QA'd software.

I may have solved one problem - by disconnecting and reconnecting the USB when it hangs after trying to initialize - but obviously that would not help when it hangs when transferring.

Try uninstalling the software through Add/Remove Programs, then delete the folder under Program Files? Try that, then reinstall. I had problems when I installed Icedtee's version without completely getting rid of what was there before.

Also see if you have a lot of TSRs running (lots of crap in your system tray, next to the time at the bottom right of your screen)

Thanks. I'll give that a shot. It may also be a USB thing, which I'll also mess around with.

If you do uninstall, please do it the way it's prescribed in the NetMD faq [registry edits and all].
