Well, I hope you like the program, but I would be very happy if you could
explain what kind of problems you have when using ACDC while running Windows?

You should have a pif file activating the pop_acdc.exe program, which sends a
pop-up request to the resident part of ACDC. This works very well on my own pc,
and the program will also control the cd, for random playing for example, even
while running a true Windows program without ACDC being activated in a dos-box.

Please reply here or directly to me at:   aroni@night.ping.dk
