To check if your autorun has been disabled go to this registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom\AutoRun
This is either "1" for enabled or "0" for disabled. Hoster's installation program should set this to "0" to disable autorun, as this feature has played havoc with CD Track import for years.

We haven't seen your answer yet on whether Autorun is disabled? This WILL slow down your drive recognition and its' becoming ready to import.
Also, scratched or badly manufactured discs will take a LONG time to import. I have talked to users who have SC discs that took 25 MINUTES PER TRACK to import into Hoster. In a case like this, it is best to make a duplicate copy of the disc in Microstudio and import that into Hoster. The duplicate, if you use MTU CDR Media (or other media that works well for CDG formats), will import tracks in fractions of a minute each.
We tested two laptop drives at MTU yesterday with 3.310. The test disc with 12 tracks was a copy made with Microstudio using MTU CDR Media. One drive took a bit over 14 secs/track, and the other a bit over 16 secs/track. That's around 3 minutes 30 seconds to import all 12 songs. I remember when getting all tracks in 15 minutes was excellent.
We've come a long way with 3.310!
