So, before I got SoundDiver, I asked if there were issues with WinXP and I was told that the only one was to change the buffer size. Now, it looks like there are some serious problems that myself and others are having. Has anyone called tech support in the U.S. about these problems? Were they any help? I would like to work with someone at Emagic about this so that we can have some hope of it working at some time. I've heard it said that at least 3.0.5 would be available for us PC users. I would hope that I'm not told to switch to a Mac!!! :-( -- Natalia __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? New DSL Internet Access from SBC & Yahoo! http://sbc.yahoo.com
