I can't get plain audio cds to play via playcenter (and my sblive value!
card).  I've just rebooted win98 and I'm getting the following message:

"Playcenter could not acquire your CDROM device.  Some other application may
be using it."

I've got two cd-roms (an oem Toshiba dvd and a phillips rw) installed.  If
it matters, I've got the dvd configured as the secondary master and the rw
as the secondary slave and also have a hollywood plus mpeg decoder installed

At various times playcenter will only recognize one of the two cd-roms.  CDs
will play on the rw, but I get a "no track" message on CDs inserted into the
dvd.

I've gone through the documentation but can't find any solution to my
problem, any suggestions out there?
