Dan, I couldn't find any reason why Express rip would come up when Tom inserts a CD. I am thinking that another instance of express Rip is running on his machine.

If it is, kill it and see what happens. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dan Kerstetter" <dh...@comcast.net> To: "'PC Audio Discussion List'" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2014 12:35 PM Subject: RE: How Do I Tell My Computer I Want Winamp To Play The CD? >I think I'm stumped on this one.
