I do understand about having patence to do this stuff and that mtu, might be busy with a new program or what ever, but what is the point in that if they dont take care of the things going on with what they already offer, I dotn think Ive ever seen a company that wants other people other than their emplyees to help you with thier problems, but thank god for you, you are a good man to help us.
I did all the window updates I know to do, and changed nothing, Im still leaning on you my man, is there anything else you might think of, Im really desperate not, I use this program in a recording studio, and Im screwed now short of canceling the recordings, or doing with another program.

Burning a music CD is not the same as burning CDGs. The process is more complex because of the graphics and audio combined aspect.
Is the drive you are using a Plextor? If so go to their web site and check the support area for Firmware updates for that drive. This is the control program that resides on the drive itself. This can also make a big difference especially since you are upgrading from so far back.
For the Windows updates did you use the Auto or Express Update to do them? If so you need to go back to their web site and do the Custom Updates.
Hoster 4 is not a new program by all means. The problems that have been time consuming is to make it work with XP and Vista correctly while adding some new features. It certainly is not their intention to be having to spend so much time on it to take away from any of their other programs. This is not a mega company like Microsoft with hundreds of programmers working on projects. It is only a small company with 4 employees and are trying to provide the best quality programs they can. There are in fact many companies that depend on their knowledgable users to help each other with those problems that we know what needs to be done to fix. I personally take it as a vote of confidence that I am giving the correct information to you and others. And believe me I have been corrected and over ridden plenty of times. They do watch what is being said in the forums. If we run into a problem we can't solve then we can always flag the thread for them to take a look and see what they can come up with.
Are you recording for Karaoke or just music? Just curious of your use.
