Already installed WavePad (I think that was the name) and it didn't fix this problem. Also, I've had Audacity installed for quite a while which theoretically should have fixed this too.

I will check this...I know MTU didn't create a c:\mtu folder (like the staff claims).

Several users do/did have the same exact issue or this wouldn't be the fourth thread about it. I never claimed it didn't work for others, just that it didn't work for me. If MTU depends upon other programs 'fixing' registry issues in Vista, but won't work with Vista as Vista is shipped and fixed by Microsoft, then this definitely is MTU's mistake for not providing a fix to users like me.

All required and custom updates from Microsoft and hardware vendors have been applied.

I did not upgrade Microstudio. I bought 4.006a last week and installed it and got this problem.
So, to sum up, I'll look into the folder thing you mentioned (thanks by the way). I've tried all the other 'solutions' and none worked for me. I'll report back tomorrow with my results.
BTW, thanks for your help...just noticed you're a mod, but not an MTU guy, so I appreciate you taking the time to help. If MTU wasn't so gung ho about refusing to help customers my attitude would've been a little nicer, but as it is they're still refusing to help and letting you do it instead...what a great company :(
