Apparantly they are not all old, beat up discs.

Maybe you got a corrupted download. Uninstall Microstudio, download a new .exe file and install it. See if thsat makes any difference.

The only burning capability I have with this particular machine is only what comes with windows. No Roxio or Nero or anything like that.

Ddouglass, like I said, I tried with several different brands and types (believe me I know about SC and their media) but it didn't make a difference on any of them. I tried with the newest and shiniest discs I have and it did the exact same thing as all the others.

I will try a reinstall per your suggestion George and see if that helps.

So here's where this stands.

I went out and bought a brand new disc from a local dealer, threw it in tried to import it. Same as all the rest.

Per George's suggestion I first tried an update (just found out about 4.005) which didn't change anything. Then being a bit more bold I uninstalled MStudio and rebooted my machine. Did a fresh install from a fresh download (saved to my computer) from MTU, rebooted per requirements in the install software. Tried again and still the same.

Does anyone know where the MTU ASPI drivers can be located? Reason I ask is because the burner is firing up but then seems to stop when it should be reading the disc. A new driver might help at this point. Worse case I am no further along than I am now.

This is frustrating. I'm not giving up but my keyboard will need replacing soon from the beating its taking. Maybe a nice one, wireless, yeah, with multimedia controls and a card reader, yeah that would be nice.

gotta learn to control the inner monologue.....sorry

go to www.goldenhawk.com and download that.
it will be in demo mode but you can burn with it.
see if you can burn anything with that. Bob

Downloaded and installed CDRWin demo from GoldenHawk.

Put in a good disc and set it to copy. It analyzed the Disc layout then analyzed audio subcode (all the way through to 100%) then it gave me...

Error Unable to create file "C:\CDRWINXX.CUE"

Any idea what theat means? From what I remember it has something to do with the Graphics information on the track.

This sounds more and more like Vista permissions problems. Almost like the program doesn't have access rights to the drive(s).

Try going to each of the program directories (Microstudio and Cdrwin) and clicking on the Compatability Files. I would also do that in all the folders used by those programs to store song files. Just a hunch, but that may reset the permissions.

[bobcox- with the Lord]

make sure you have settings checked for karaoke.
and see if it will copy disc. Bob

i will see if i can find out anything about that error message.

Compatibility files only showed up for the Hoster folder. I checked there and reset some folder options for the Hoster and MStudio folders, the folder I store songs in and also tried for the burners and still no change.

I checked the box in CDRWin for CD+Graphics. I haven't used this program in several years and the help doesn't work in Vista 64 so if you know of anything else I should check please let me know.

Monolith -

You are having exactly the same problems I am having. I think it is centered around Vista. I have same symptoms. Look at my posts in the last month concerning VISTA 64 and Plextor. I would guess you are running 32-bit but I have the same issues. I think MTU support is going to finally take me seriously and have acknowledge a possible software pronblem. Hopefully we can get this resolved soon.
