Hi guys, I'll keep this short as it's rather off-topic but just to let you know I've solved my CD drive problem, the reporting of all CDs as audio discs with track01.cda under Win98 while if I started the machine command prompt only it was fine. I finally fixed it by uninstalling the Adaptec Direct CD UDF reader (I think)-- I should say tech support at Creative Labs did mention getting the latest UDF reader of their software but not totally uninstalling. Okay I now get three or four errors when windoze starts up complaining about missing DLLs and the like but at I can play ProPinball Timeshock now! I suppose I owe AOL a big apology for blaming the problem on them, and since I just got another 10-hour toll free trial disc in the post today, and can once more use my CD drive under Windoze I may take it up :-) I really am a happy bunny today!!!
