RE: Questions

I just rebuilt my cMP over the weekend using latest hardware specifications. Highly recommended!

Ryelands' advice is good. Definitely go with CD ripping on another computer and just copy CDs (.cue & .wav / .flac) to your cMP (you get 4GB USB sticks these days). You benefit as your cMP has no networking functionality (giving better sound quality) and you don't have to mess with EAC. This is what I do with my reference setup.

It's a first not being able to use 250GB+ drives! I have a HTPC using cMP setup which has 1TB (2x512GB Seagate SATA HDDs). This is very unusual - you may a have a mobo fault.

Your other questions:

  1. It's safe to do the registry changes - minlogon stuff (posted under additional fine tuning) is high risk
  2. Yes with cPlay you don't need foobar
  3. Hoping to get a single guide covering all the new material + cPlay: cMP2
