I am ready to contact my credit card company and put a stop to the payment....
ALL I want to know is HOW the heck do you download the cdgs on the computer....I know you stick the cd in BUT there is a file that you have to download it to so nothing can be quickly 'deleted' right? This company is really starting to get to me. I think they don't call back on purpose. I even tried telling them I wanted to 'order more stuff'....Attorney General here I come.....

Michelle, Dale (ddouglas) and the owner of the company (admin) were trying to help you in this Step by Step Help? Forum post set up for you. You never replied back, so we all assumed you figured it out.

Michelle,
Here are the steps:
1. Open Hoster by double clicking on desktop Icon.
2. Click on Import Songs at top of screen.
3. Slide down and click on Import from CD.
4. When the Import window opens, Find the Brand box and fill in with name of company (Sound Choice, Chartbuster, Top Hits Monthly, etc.).
5. Find the DiskID box and fill this in. (DiskID consists of initials of company like SC, CB, etc. and the ID Number from the disk label.) There is a dropdown list that will show if you click on down-arrow to right of box and from that list you can select the correct one.
6. Insert the CD in the drive.
7. Click the Search Local Database button and wait for it to fill in the track list below. Then verify that it has the correct information.
8. Click Select All button. Each of the tracks will have a check mark in front of it and Ready in the Status column.
9. Click Next button to get the next available BookID (this is how you identify the tracks to add to the playlist).
10. Click Import Selected Tracks button and sit back while Hoster Imports the files to a folder (C:\MTU\KMA Files) on your hard drive.

That is about as basic as I can get it. When you do this I am sure more questions will come up. But please post any further questions in your thread (Admin made it a new thread) Step by Step Help?

OK I have returned from the dart tournament.
Clerafication on the Geeks and in reference to earlier comments.
At a local Dept. Store the geek I had discussion for help had no clue and I think knew lees then myself which isn't a whole lot so sorry if I offended anyone else.
I installed the new 320 gig hd and reloaded XP Pro.
I went inot the Bios and set the memory to 128 and backed the resolution in the settings to 16 bit. I downloaded net frame to 2.0 and installed direct x 9.0 and also a dvd program.
I have upgraded to service pack 3 and reloaded Hoster 4.06.
I was just focused on the videos right now and have not had the time ot check out the other problems sinde they were speroctic before and not all the time.
Now I have tried the video, Pioneer Karaoke DVD adn still encounter an error problem which shuts down Hoster. If any help its code 0xc0000005.
and thanks again for the suggestions which I believe I foolowed with exception of buying a new laptop.
Thanks

Mike

you won't be able to import a dvd on hoster yet, from what i've been reading it will be on the next upgrade around mid of 2009, you have to import your dvd as a dat. file in your int. drive, and hoster will play it by clicking the video tab..as far as the error code i am not able to help you with that since i have never encountered it..did you do all the updates before you installed hoster, the recommended and very important all the custom updates ? if not do so and you should also have netframe 3.0( not 3.5 ) and wmp 9 or 11.just thought about it are you talking about a vcd ( karaoke cd, or a regular dvd music video/movie ? ) if i'm
not mistaken and hope someone would correct me on this i think you need somekind of a codec ( not sure if that was the name ) in order for you to be able to import /download a dvd..
