	I have been experiencing continual problems with getting UAE's from 
	Windows Programs that play audio CD's in windows 386 enhanced mode.

	My Configuration

	Northgate 386/20
	MSCDEX V2.2
	Adaptec 1542B Host Adaptor	
	Adaptec ASPI DOS Manager
	Trantor ASPI CD-ROM Driver
	NEC CDR-77 CD-ROM
	Windows 3.0a
	QEMM 5.1

	I should note that any character based program that play's audio CD's
	in a window under 386 enhanced mode will work okay,  Only windows
	programs to play audio cds seem to bomb in 386 enhanced mode.

	Ive been told that this is a problem with Windows and MSCDEX.   Can
	anyone shed any light on a fix for this problem,   an explanation,
	a workaround or when this may get fixed in windows?

	Thanks,
	Ira Chavis
