It was not working because you had the 32 bit version of dBpoweramp installed, and this would install the 32 bit version of QAAC, but that would not...

I am afraid that CD Writer is no longer supported, there are drives it cannot work with.

I'll have a look at updating drivers but as far as i know there are no newer ones. PC is only a month old and when i checked they were all up to date.

Have you C2 error pointers (secure options) checked? If so, uncheck it and try again. The other possibility is a dying drive. Dat Ei

I easily transfer my music, including FLAC files if I want, to my iPhone and iPad using TuneFusion (a dbpa companion product) and running foobar2000...
