I remember reading about problems between WinMedPlayer 7.1 and Adaptec Direct
CD.  I experienced that problem yesterday.  I have an old HP CD-RW with Direct
CD ver 2.5 on a 733Mhz system and Win98SE.  I installed the WinMedPlayer 7.1
about two months ago and all was well.  Yesterday I tried to format a new CD-RW
disc.  After a few minutes, the WMP 7.1 skin appeared and apparently the disc is
now a coaster. (actually there are 3 or 4 because I kept trying).  As I said, I
have heard of the problem a few months ago, but do not remember what the
solution is.  I still have WMP 6.4, so could reinstall it. (Don't really care if
I have the 7.1)  Is there a better solution??  How about the new WMP 8??
Any other ideas???
