Yes, things work. The 8210 works fine with XP. The video works fine. And, as of today, MS works fine.

After a couple of days installing and re-installing Windows 98 SE and Windows XP Pro, and MS, both MS 2.609 and 2.611, with no success, just for giggles, today, I disabled DirectX 9 and gave it a whirl...

And, everything with MS works great!

I just finished recording and testing a CDG. Beautiful sound, and beautiful lyrics on the screen. Both on the PC and the monitor attached to my stereo and karaoke player.

I am, just for the record, running MS 2.609. I haven't re-tried MS 2.611, yet.

Go figure...
