	That's probably you're problem. I've found that most thing's that come 
with Windows are complete Junk. I was using the Windows Midi driver thing 
along with the one that came with Cakewalk, and NOTHING worked. So I asked
a friend and he said: Lose the WIndows Midi, it's a waste. I do, and have had
NO problmes. I've even downloaded in the background while composing.

	This may not fix your problem specifically, but I suggest that if 
you're partially serious about midi under windows, go out and buy a real 
program for under windows (I thoroughly suggest Cakewalk for Windows).
