You're a genious. Putting that dll in the windows\system32 did the trick. I can save via the CDSpeed save button, but I get the same black border as you. Maybe I'll stay with KSnapshot, the png looks nicer and it's just as easy.

I have not tried starting CDSpeed with anything other than the Win98 setting. It does start pretty fast though. I'll try out some other win OS type settings and see if there's a difference for me.

Thanks for the info on the 4x and 8x scanning. My scientifically sound comparison of a single disc scanned one time at the 2 speeds shows pretty much no difference at the start of the disc (or anywhere else for that matter). I'll keep scanning discs at both speeds for a little while to see if there is any difference.
