Welcome Largeportion to the Karaoke scene. The thread that you chose to post in happens to be several months old and definately out of date. Since the time this was going on MTU has made major changes to their programs , fixing this problem among others that have cropped up and adding new features making their programs the best on the market. The support we get from the staff at MTU is great and there are plenty of customers in here with knowledge of computers that can help too.
As far as the drives go you are no longer limited to Plextor drives. There are many drives that will work with both Microstudio and Hoster, two main programs MTU produces. If you check in the product list on the main website there is a list of all the compatible drives.
Which program(s) are you interested in?

Do you want them to be in MP3/cd+g format when you burn them to the CD or will restoring them to uncompressed CDG format be ok? If you want them in MP3/cd+g format then use Roxio or Nero to organize and burn them. If you want the latter then Microstudio is for you. I know I sound like a salesman, but I assure you I'm not. Just a pleased customer.

How do you know you won't get run over if you cross the street...you don't, but if you don't cross the street you won't be able to buy your groceries. I don't think you can name a single product that 100% of them work 100% of the time. In this case there are other variables that can cause problems such as computer software and hardware setup that already exists
I can tell that the MTU staff and all of us who have been here for a while will help you get it fixed if something doesn't work. Good luck and feel free to ask us anything.
