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). > _________________________________________________ > > Bill Frolik Hewlett-Packard Co. > bill@hpcvlx.cv.hp.com 1010 NE Circle Blvd > (503) 750-4082 Corvallis, OR 97330 mike mtressle@bsu-cs.bsu.edu mtressle@lovelace.bsu.edu 00MBTRESSLER@leo.bsuvc.bsu.edu _I_ want a piece of MEAT!
