Wow. I attempted to install the Yamaha Y-SXG50 v3.12.21 (MIDI software synth driver) in Windows XP. I reboot, and odd crap starts happening! In most cases, when I log in (doesn't matter whether as admin or as normal user account that I use), while everything is still loading, the taskbar will suddenly revert to Win9x-style, and a few seconds later the whole system will suddenly reboot (accompanied by a "spinning down" noise).
If I get lucky, then this doesn't happen, but I get a popup box saying that Windows Explorer has crashed. In fact I have that popup box up right now - don't want to click "close" because then I won't be able to post this thread. I looked at what modules were loaded - they included three files which I think are probably from the Y-SXG50. This is after I tried uninstalling Y-SXG50 in Safe Mode, and it told me that there were some files currently in use that could not be deleted. I think they were the same files as these modules:
"sxgb.dll"
"SXGBSYS.DLL"
and maaaybe "wdmaud.drv"
What should I do? Is there any way I can delete them? If I do, will it solve my problem? I don't even know where they are, since I can't use Explorer to search for them (since explorer is crashed) - luckily I have Firefox which is not IE dependent. >_< Please help!
