Added the 4.5c beta and nearly blew speakers..... -Sound Forge - PC

Subject:Added the 4.5c beta and nearly blew speakers..... Posted by: thenders Date:4/20/1999 5:49:07 AM I just purchased the 4.5(a) Sound Forge. I then looked for any updates. Found the 4.5c update. Did not see that it was beta (not obvious) loaded it. It immediatly put an expiration date on my bought copy and also did some changing in the sound features on my computer. It killed my Turtle Beach Montego software control and forced control back to the Win98 sound. Rebooted and nearly blew my speakers before I could get to the wire to disconnect. Then it would not let me unload the beta. I had to dig thru the registry to clean out all references to Sound Forge. Blew away the directories and started over with fresh reload. Things seem to go back to normal. Just beware... So am I to assume that there are no upgrades from 4.5a? Are we going to be charged for same number different letter updates? I think the word Beta needs to be more obvious but now its listed under updates....
