Ron, a further update.
I reinstalled Vista from scratch ( 😡 ) and reinstalled Firefly (port 9999). It worked fine with my SB. When I put the PC on suspend (or sleep) mode (I don’t know which term Vista is using – I run a Dutch language version) and fired it up again, firefly is still running but my SB states that no library can be found. That is the only change I put in.
When I then shut down my PC completely and restart, Firefly still won’t work with my SB. It initially won’t allow me to change the settings (so boxes are dimmed). I have to shut down Firefly and restart it, specifically running it with administration rights (although my useraccount has them standard).
Does this help in any way? Can you test this on your machine? Could it be that the suspend mode locks something up completely? Could DEP (the Data Encryption Protocol) from Microsoft has anything to do with it?
It can’t be WMP 11: it has not been started after my start from scratch.
