I am running BlueWave under XP with no problems. I have a shortcut
that I keep in a folder on my desktop that I use -- with very standard
settings.
I also have 4NT installed, but I doubt that has any bearing.
Feel free to tell him to send me an email for consutation if he wants.
I could email him a copy of the shortcut if he (she) likes. It is
possible the problem is in some other setting, e.g. links to the
compression program.
