4.000 Work with more drives?? Cant't tell with Demo

[lmcmains]

I have seven drives total. Three of them wouldn't work before but they will all work now.

Thanks for responding. I'm optimistic that my drive will work. Actually I was about to go ahead and order 4.000 after posting the thread, but I couldn't install keyrite on my laptop, which is the computer I want to install 4.000 on. (Something about number of computers) So I'm waiting for something from MTU Support.

Thanks again

I installed Microstudio 4.000

Well, my drive which is a USB HP dvd840e is still having the same problem. Well, no biggy. I found another drive for a good bargain at Fry's and it works, even with the prior version.

Re Keyrite- Apparently, I didn't have to have keyrite installed on the machine for the play function to change the key during performance-saving a file would probably need keyrite

I have an hp 840e and it works great with MS 4.00. Make sure you have all windows updates and the latest firware update from HP.

Thank you for your response. Is your HP Internal or External? My drive is USB This drive does work with some clean original discs. My "test" disc is a copy of one of my Garth Brooks discs. My other drive copies all songs completely, this one does not. I'm a teacher thinking of organizing a club or something and my feeling is that I want students who might bring me a disc, copy or original, to be able to sing. My other drive will do that.

Maybe it's a disc problem or maybe it's the fact that this was a refurbished drive (with rebate it was only $40)

Anyway, firmware and windows are updated. Again, thanks.

If this is the case and Larry has same model and it works I would really suspect that refurbished drive. Maybe it wasn't such a good bargain after all.

If I ignore the cdg aspect of things, this drive has done everything I ask it to including ripping and writing backup copies of my dvd's. But I found this non-refurbished drive by Memorex at a price that is close to the bargain I just mentioned, and like I say, it seems to do everything. So I have a drive that does seemingly everything everywhere I go, and one that does everything (except cdg) wherever I go for a total of about $100. Somehow I will find a way to take advantage of my many blessings!!
