Okay...here;'s the latest: I uninstalled CDEX; then installed a later version....same results! I DON'T UNDERSTAND! To the best of my knowledge, I am doing everything correctly (I have written my email where it's supposed to go) still..it says "audio track 1; track 1...I must be stupid or something, for it seems to work for everybody else!

I'm either down to that...or just trying to see what I can do with Windows Media; so far, no luck there as I cannot find something that says "srip CD (I have a set of instructions that tell me that control-3 will put me where I need to be for ripping CDs with Windows Media. However I have been through all the tabs and there's absolutely nothing indicating to me that I can rip a CD with this program either! Totally frustrated!

Well I'm either not understanding something, or it's just plain not working; it _still_ gives me "audio track 1...and on and on and on; not what I want! I don't understand why it used to work just fine, but now it's not!

If it doesn't grab them automaticly, go to your cddb sub menu and arrow down to freedb batch query and press enter. I bet you that'll do the trick.
