I had this same problem when I loaded 4.02 demo on to a Friends brand new Hp computer running vista home basic so that he could try the program himself. Hoster started OK and I tried to show him how to load some songs from the CD mainly to check if it would read CD+g files. I only loaded a couple of tracks and they played right. then I tried to load some more and a message came up, can't remember the wording exactly but it could not find the drive. I then went into my computer to see the drives and there was no CD drive. I restarted his computer but still no CD drive showing. Went into Device manager, it showed CD drive but on clicking this it said driver corrupt.
Pressed the send button to Microsoft when the error message came up and it eventually came back message something like no known remedy. Tried Microsoft web site looking for answer, no luck. Well as it was a brand new computer not much been added and did not have Steve Bauer remedy I restored it to it's factory state. I did not try to load Hoster again and my friend has opted for a different program. I use Hoster myself on my XP machine no problems very satisfied. I just wonder if there is a problem in the demo version.
