Approx. 50% of the song lyrics were out of phase with the music. Very Embarrassing!!!! Also, the buttons were very slow to react!!! very slow!!!
This morning I have been troubleshooting the problem and have found that if I start my PC everything runs smoothly, but once i activate "dual screens" the problem occurs!
I have reiterated this info to tech support and will see what they say.

If you are running Vista, install 4.03 instead. 4.04 works best on XP. There has been a lot of discussion on the Forum & this is what many users have done to solve their out-of-sync & video problems on Vista. They are working to get 4.05 out as soon as possible, to resolve these issues.

you should have reverted to 3.4 that came bundled with 4.04

The problems I found in 4.04 also spilled over into the 3.4 bundled version too. I found it best to completely uninstall and install 4.03.

I agree, 4.04 was a nightmare for me. I am running XP. Reverted back to 4.03 which ran fine(with a couple of small problems). I put in support tickets to MTU. Got one back concerning lyrics stopping or slowing while loading singers disk..They told me to update all driver( updated that before submitting ticket,checked again afterwards and to uninstall WMP11. I did, it did'nt help. Based on there reply to this ticket I don't think that MTU believes it is a bug. If 4.05 fixes all these problems I will really be impressed. Have to wait and see.

XP Pro may be a little pickier than XP Home. Hoster 4.04 uses a lot of resourses. Did you upgrade your graphics card? There is also an fix suggested in the Manual regarding graphics cards. The Troubleshooting section may be of some help.

Do you have WMP 9 or 11? WMP 9 works for some but WMP-11 may work better for you. Do the computer manufactuer's updates also.
