Agreed, anything above version 5.0B seems to crash. I have a finely tuned XP pro installed on a clone, no HP, Compaq, Dell or any other proprietary system. Running a P4 1.5 on a 850 chipset w/ 400mhz Rambus. Installed the new patch that just came out and it fuxored my EZCD install. Had to get out the original 5.0 Plt. ver. and find the 5.0b upgrade and install that so it would see my recorder, a lite-on 24 to get it to work again after I uninstalled the upgraded version.
All is back and working, what a pain.
