Hi,FunWithArt. Sounds like possibly you're answer may be at the Microstudio Tech. Support Forum under the thread titled "Sticky:ASPI driver-how to install it", posted by admin.
Hope this cures your problem.
Take care,
George
Just occurred to me another possibility is your hard drive may be at capacity, and since microstudio writes an image to the hard drive you may not have room. It takes approx. 45-50 megs per song. just another posssibility.
