I've got Easy CD Creator 4.02e and it seems to be working fine except in one situation. First, the details of my computer: I've got a SCSI CD-ROM (NEC CD-ROM Drive 464) (Drive F:\) and my CD writer is also a SCSI (Plextor PlexWriter 12/10/32s) (Drive E:\). My computer is a Dell OptiPlex GXa, 266mhz, Pentium II, with 128 mb ram, running Windows 98se.
My problem is that whenever there is an audio CD in my CD-ROM (Drive F:\) and I run Easy CD Creator 4.02e, the CD-ROM (Drive F:\) locks up and the program Easy CD Creator also freezes. The same thing happens when I insert a CD in Drive F:\ while Easy CD Creator is running. After the freeze, I must reboot my computer to free the CD-ROM (Drive F:\). Therefore, I've got to make sure there is no audio CD in the CD-ROM (Drive F:\) before running the program, nor can I insert an audio CD in the CD-ROM while the program is running. This is a hassle and would like to know why it is doing that and how to stop it, or work around it. I did recently upgrade version 4.02e to version 4.05 in hopes that it would fix the problem but to no avail.
I have had good results ripping CD-Rs with Easy CD Creator 4.02e, however, since my CD-ROM (Drive F:\) is hooked into my sound card (CD-RW (Drive E:\) is not), I would like to use Easy CD Creator to listen and extract CD tracks, and it is not possible with the freezes. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I have read several other posts of similar problems with the program, but nothing identical. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
