Bad Software!

I installed a program called 'Sound Taxi'- a program that can convert one format of audio files to another (also remove DRM).

It BSOD'ed on isntall; apparently it makes changes to the way Windows uses sound cards/audio drivers by installing a custom sound device to capture all audio...

On reboot, sound card was hosed- along with most USB devices and my DVD-ROM devices. A little experimenting and I got the later two items to work- but ended up doign a re-install of Windows to get my sound back!

Advice: stay the Hell away form any program called 'Sound Taxi'!!!
