Hi fellow ACiD Folks, I have recently encountered a problem with my ACID projects where some of the tracks don't play, or they play at a very low volume (but the levels in the mixer are normal. Accomanying this problem is a transparent folder that has appeared on my desktop that seems to have aliases nof all my desktop icons. Anybody got any suggestions?

Thanks in advance to any helpers out there.

Uh oh. Sounds sketchy. I've never seen Acid create any spontanious folders anywhere which would lead me to beleive that the "folder" problem is not in Acid. This problem (located elsewhere) may be causing your audio problems. Scan everything (scandisk and virus checks). If that doesnt correct the issue I would re-install windows.

Thanks for replying. I don't think ACID created this folder but I do think that it might be related to the fact that play-back is messed up in my projects. I have scan- disked (no-problems found) and de-fraged, and the problem still exists. Any other ideas out there before I re-install ACID and windows?

Thanks Again in Advance.

Sounds like someone's mashed your keyboard for 10 minutes. Don't have a two-year-old in the house do you ?

Have you simply tried deleting all the extra muck and searching for the file names of the malfunctioning tracks to see if there's a second version ?

Also try resaving the song with "save all media with song" (or whatever that options's called) checked.

No, no two year old and no smash on the keyboard but I will try the Save as w/ embedded audio deal. Thanks Wham5
