I now have Hoster 3.315 on a laptop with Vista Home Premium and using an external 160 gb HD for kma storage and am having no problems like you describe.

Thanks for the reply. I returned the laptop and ordered a laptop with XP. It could be I work with 500 gig external drives. One a Western Digital, Seagate.

I am running win xp with 2 western digital 500gig hard drives, with no problems. maybe it was a little freaky thing that happens sometimes in the bios.

Did you ever get this to work. I have done this with the .kma files on an external hard drive under Vista Basic, and Vista ultimate. I had no problems at all.

Make sure your Database is still located on the C:\ drive and not the external drive.

I took that laptop back and ordered a Dell. I had the same problem using Vista.
I found that I had to go to windows explorer, highlight the drive, go to properties, then security tab, then edit, then click on the allow tab.
It went through all 57,000 files ( KMA & MP3 ) and it then allowed the Hoster program to access the KMA files.
It didn't seem to matter on the MP3's. I think Vista only had a problem with the KMA files, seeing them as data.
We purchased an addtional HP Laptop earlier this week with Vista. We had to do the same thing.

Thanks
