George:
Boy do I feel foolish-I did not realize there was a difference in cdg and cd+g files (the file extension looks the same) I was trying to play the cdg files I had on the hard drive (had converted from zip to cd+g using mp3 toolz). I said in my first post I was probably doing something wrong!!
One question-the Keyrite manual states you can rename a bin file to cdg. When I did this it still shows bin as the type and would not come up in my list of files.
Thanks for your help.
