FM_RADIO crashes pc when launched from boot

My pc crashes when I boot and I go directly to the FM Radio player.
On the crash it immediately reboots the pc...

The pc rebooted 3 times in a row until I finally got it to play the radio
by first playing an MP3 for just a few seconds then going to FM mode.

It then loaded and worked fine. Tested this twice and worked both times.

I was in the Directory (1) mode when I did this.

Win XP Pro sp2; Frodo take 3; Feb's metal skin; Radiator; D-Link usb radio

I'll take a look.

do you have your pc set to auto reboot when it bluescreens? If so, can you turn it off to get any info in the bluescreen, maybe it can help pin point the reason it crashed.

Yea I do have it set to auto-reboot... hmm... I'll do that and see if any pertinent info..

Thanks... good idea

also check in control panel that its got the right drivers loaded (from the radiator website) then make sure the radio works in radiator before using your "player"

Yea.. radiator has the right drivers loaded... has always worked with radiator and with frodo, media engine, etc...
I just knew it would crash occasionally... just today I actually figured out the sequence of events that was killing it....
Never really use radio... just was out when the Steelers were on and wanted to hear every juicy minute
