Compaq 5190, Windows XP Pro, HP 8210i, & MS 2.611

Having recently upgraded my Compaq 5190 to Windows XP Pro, I purchased and downloaded the MS 2.611 upgrade today. Upon installation and use, I find the Lyrics are corrupted when playing a CD+G disk in MS 2.611.

MS 2.4 worked flawlessly on my Compaq 5190 with Windows 98 SE, and my HP 8210i.

HP's website indicates the use of Windows XP Pro native driver for the HP 8210i is appropriate.

Any thoughts and suggestions would be appreciated.

I don't think that this drive works with any other versions of Microstudio above 2.400, due to driver changes.

Does this drive even work in XP, I didn't think that it would work under XP?

Yes, things work. The 8210 works fine with XP. The video works fine. And, as of today, MS works fine.

After a couple of days installing and re-installing Windows 98 SE and Windows XP Pro, and MS, both MS 2.609 and 2.611, with no success, just for giggles, today, I disabled DirectX 9 and gave it a whirl...

And, everything with MS works great!

I just finished recording and testing a CDG. Beautiful sound, and beautiful lyrics on the screen. Both on the PC and the monitor attached to my stereo and karaoke player.

I am, just for the record, running MS 2.609. I haven't re-tried MS 2.611, yet.

Go figure...

MS 2.611 works as well, after disabling DirectX.

Can you tell me what you mean when you say that you Disabled DirectX 9? I know that all of our programs use this, so this should be needed. Also how did you disable this, I am not aware that you can?

I can tell you what I did, whether I completely disabled the features of DirectX required by MS, I guess I'm really not certain after reading your reply. Anyway, I ran DXDiag, selected Display, and disabled DirectDraw Acceleration from within DirectX Features. Doing so also disabled Direct3D acceleration and AGP Texture Acceleration. And MS works fine now.

I understand what you have done now. Just not exactly why this would work, this should make it fail, but if it is working then great.
