Thanks Mike. I just removed the Wave Driver. We'll see... Yup, it worked! Now what do I do if I want to run Acid? Or burn a friggin' CD? More importantly, why does it work one day and not the next? That's the worst of it and I guess why so many folks are shy of Windows. The inconsistency. If it works a certain way each time I'm happy, but the back and forth make me crazy!!
