Okay, so all those cds I bought at Amoeba the other day? So I go to put one of them in my cd drive on my new PC and...

...everything freezes. Well, I can move the mouse around, and I can use the Task Manager, but Media Monkey freezes, does the "(Not Responding)" note from Hell, and doesn't even react when I end it using Task Manager. And if I try to run something else, it decides not to work. Nothing responds. No friggin' clue what's kicking it off.

This is a new PC with 6 gigs of RAM and a terabyte of physical memory, people. It SHOULD NOT be doing stupid shit like this. It hasn't before. And yes, I did run all the usual PC cleaning devices recently, so I doubt it's that.


*sigh*

Any ideas? (And no, I do NOT want to hear "this wouldn't happen with a Mac" because I've SEEN it happen with a friend's Mac.)
