4. Download ALL - yes ALL - updates to your Windows. One user couldn't run correctly until even a Korean Font update was downloaded... go figure!

James Hanna, have you done this upgrade yet? We're waiting to see if this fixes your problem.

Jahern, same for you... do an update with CUSTOM and see if anything needs to be downloaded and installed. If so, that may explain the problem you have. One other user in another Thread upgraded his Windows with CUSTOM and he could them play CDs and CDGs.

We're trying to find out RIGHT NOW if this is the cause as we are working on Microstudio 4.006, with Beta 1 going out this week.

I played CD and CDG discs on two fully updated Windows systems. The Audio CD tracks started playing within a quarter-second, the CDG tracks had an 11 second delay, which was clear as the Dur field counted down and then played perfectly... lyrics and music.

We can't re-create the problem. Thus, it's not scheduled for further review... unless you folks tell us updating Windows with CUSTOM didn't solve the problem.
