Hi , Jerry .Thank you for answering .You shure look like someone who knows a bit about computers . About my computer , it's a Pentium 4 Celeron, 1,7ghz , 256mg of RAM ,Sound Blaster Live!Value , running on Windows 98SE .I managed to update all the drivers I knew about and could.And about the system properties , everything seems to be clean of any ! & ? . One thing bothers me though , maybe you could be of some assistance .I don't know on which comm , or does it use one ,my DSL hi speed modem (external) works .But the FT program tells me that both Comms 1 and 2 are free.
Could they be sharing ports ,or IRQ slots with other programs and not tell it (I read that somewhere). Or could it be that there is a special tweak that I have to switch on the keyboard that I don't know of .Whew!,that makes a lot of questioning. I hope that the infos I gave you will help in some way because I'm really getting bluesy about it.

You see,I'm working with a company that makes CDs and soundtracks for singers ,also for Karaoke .I often compose the tracks for lyrics that they give me for study.I make compos for myself too.So that makes a whole lot of disks to transfer ! Enough bothering you . Hope to read from you later . Thank you again !
