dbPoweramp crashing Vista

[webbmeister]

I have dbPoweramp v12.3 Reference running on Vista Enterprise. When I run the CD Ripper and click on the "Options" button the program freezes, and the system has to be Hard Reset because task manager will no longer open. I only seem to have this problem if I click "options" before inserting a CD into the drive ie the "Insert CD" request box is open.

Vista 32 or 64 bit?

32 Bit.

By issuing those drive query commands should not crash Windows, what is the CD drive and how does it connect to the computer?

Re: dbPoweramp crashing Vista

It's a liteon DVD Writer connected via IDE.

Re: dbPoweramp crashing Vista

Are you 100% sure it is set to master (if only 1 drive present on that IDE), or slave if there are 2 drives?

Re: dbPoweramp crashing Vista

Just checked, it is only drive on the cable & it is set to master. Is it because I am pressing "options" whilst the "select audio drive" dialogue is present?

Re: dbPoweramp crashing Vista

Really Windows should not crash, whatever a program requests from a drive, even if the calls were garbage.

You could try one of the different communication methods on the options page.

Very strange - once I have inserted an AudioCD & it has read the details of the CD, I can press Options and get into the Options dialogue no problem at all.

Re: dbPoweramp crashing Vista

Do you happen to have any upper or lower filter drivers installed on that IDE device/channel?

Re: dbPoweramp crashing Vista

Anyone any ideas on this one?

Re: dbPoweramp crashing Vista

By the looks of it you have many filters installed, there is a possibility that one of those is causing the crash.
