| 8275 | 2001-02-01 13:15:00 | When I insert an audio CD, I get a system error dialog box (plain white with a black border) from cdplayer saying 'An error has occurred in your program. To keep working anyway, click Ignore and save your work in a new file. To quit this program, click Close. You will lose information you entered since your last Save.' Clicking Ignore button has no obvious effect. Clicking Close brings up the application error dialog box (grey with blue title bar) saying: This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down. Clicking the 'Details' button gives the following: CDPLAYER caused a general protection fault in module MCICDA.DRV at 0001:000015ce. Registers: EAX=00000006 CS=2787 EIP=000015ce EFLGS=00000217 EBX=01870000 SS=3eff ESP=00008b68 EBP=00008b68 ECX=000006a2 DS=310f ESI=00000001 FS=0000 EDX=01870000 ES=0000 EDI=00000009 GS=0000 Bytes at CS:EIP: 26 88 47 1a 26 c6 07 1a 26 c6 47 01 00 8a 46 04 Stack dump: 19c38b7a 00050003 00010006 00000001 8b900000 0001145e 00000003 00001500 07380000 3eff3eff 152f8ba0 3eff8d94 002516bf 8bde1f7e 2ca78bca 8d9417af Clicking the close button instead gives the system error dialog box again. If you click close in each, then after about ten cycles, they both disappear and the system appears to be normal. I get the same behaviour if I start the Cdplayer.exe from Start>Programs>Accessories>Entertainment. I know there is nothing wrong with the hardware, since I get lovely sound if I just press the play button on the front of my CD Rom - even after all the error msgs. I have tried: Reinstalling windows CDplayer using three different approaches, including removing CDaudio device controllers as an overall class under Control Panel>Multimedia>Media Control Devices. Checking and changing all the possible permutations of 'Auto insert notification', 'DMA' under System Properties>Device Manager and Properties for the selected CD Rom with restarts between each change. Disabling / Enabling DMA for my CD rom under the BIOS. Is there anything obvious that I can check or is this one of those dastardly registry problems? I am running Win98SE on a Cel366 @ 400 on a BX board with 128Mb RAM. My CD Rom is a Sony CDU4811 run as Slave on the Primary IDE channel to a Seagate 17Gb (5400revs) drive. I have a Sony CRX140E writer as master on the secondary with no slave drive present. It shows the same behaviour with audio cds. I am using NERO 5.0.2.4 to burn and am also using CD Copier Gamers' Edition as a virtual CD Rom drive. This is basically a licensed version of the program Virtual CD Rom. I am not sure at what point my real CD drives stopped being able to play audio, because it's not a feature I use often - until now. I know that NERO is not to blame, from past experience. Is there anything I can try before uninstalling the Virtual CD drivers and losing Gigabytes of virtual CDs that I have built? Sorry this is so long. |
