Lots of problems if you don't flash to version 1.30 with XP and Easy Cd Creator 5. This will run within XP and bring you up to the latest version. Not available at Ricoh. Use at own risk as I had some doing in making it up. Worked well for me. Without it made a multitude of coasters. Make sure you also are running ver5.02b or Easy Cd creator when you use XP. If your uncertain your on the right track there's a reversal selection, play it safe. Please comment back good or bad. Cheers.
