I haven’t used any of my multi-media PG apps in months (like Blues Piano Master class vol 1, or 20 Tunes Jazz Guitar vol 3, even Oscar Peterson) but they all crash when trying to play video now. Actually crash is a harsh way of saying I get a: “No MCI device at ..” and if I clear that error then I usually get: “a problem occurred initializing MCI at..” or variations on those errors but always reporting something about MCI being out to lunch.
These SAME programs run fine on laptop. And yes I have de-installed and reinstalled a few of these just to see what would happen (Blues Piano Master Class). I have READ what little online helps, FAQ’,s etc. there is on this issue and did the TWO things PG suggested: update Direct X and video card drives as well as DISABLED the unimodem half-duplex audio device.I even went registry diving and got rid of some older Divx apps/drives, etc.
Now in terms of audio and video codecs my laptop and desktop have same ones (except for the HW differences like laptop sound card (generic built in) and desktop Soundblaster Audigy I can run all the wmv files in media player independent of the program but that kind of defeats purpose.
My desktop is an older Dell XPS Pentium 4 3.2 GHz, 250 GB SATA and a 500 GB SATA, 4 GB RAM; WIN XP PRO SP3 Video - ATI (actually Powercolor AGP8x 512MB) (ATI Radeon HD 3850 AGP – current drivers CURRENT DirectX 9c (just even re-installed) The tscc codec is also installed
All applications and OS related items are CURRENT and all of audio/video apps appear to be fully functioning including Windows and Windows Media player other than these PG apps that use video. Almost every application (office, developer studio, stats, video apps, music apps, printer drivers, etc.) that are installed on desktop are ALSO installed on laptop – so the two machines look very, very similar in terms of installed and running applications, .dlls etc.
PS Guitar star Brent Mason Country videos all seem to work ?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated (
Thanks in advance Larry

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
