I know that JSWolf and HarryT are getting really sick of these "BD don't work" threads. From the patients they have, you'de think the program was their love-child

Anyway, I've done all I can, and no joy (or love) from BD. I have Vista, and I have:

Done a complete Uninstall
Installed to the root directory (C:\Book Designer...) using BD 4.0
Copied the files from the 7/30/07 update over the top of the 4.0 install
Copied the updated cleaner files
Ensured that the output path exists (even tried the root)
Disabled all my anti-everything programs

I get the ever present "Failed to make sony reader file" message for both the test and the make options.

Care to suggest what I might have missed?
