Hello All,

My media Monkey starts up and cant find my library stored on my external drive. I tried the following:

http://www.mediamonkey.com/support/inde ... icleid=127

I thought it would help, but it didn't.

I have had MM for a while now and this is my first major problem. It's like it won't even find the external hard drive to scan anymore.

I did notice the following in my .ini file:

That is the only line like that in the entire .ini

I am using Vista 32 with 4gb ram.

I just downloaded 3,2,2 and thought it would help- but still no avail. Should I try to uninstall and a fresh install?

Thanks

Did you change the default DB location as specified in this FAQ article:
http://www.mediamonkey.com/support/inde ... ticleid=46

?

Tried it- Still doesn't work.

MM opens up and tries to reading tracks, but it's still doesn't seem to be finding them, because I don't even hear the external drive spinning. MM actually seems to freeze.

Creating Debug Log Should be valuable in this case http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=69

The link on that page does not install the Media Monkey_Debug file

Huh? The link works fine.

Sounds like a driveID issue to me. Do you see the external drive and its tracks still listed under the Library > Location node?
