i need some help as well. i did a test to see where the problem was. i have been running xp pro as an oem before it came out to the public. since then i was just using my laptop internal cdr and everything was ok. i did DL the "b" update and install that to fix direct cd not knowing my cdr drive. now heres my lap stats
Compaq Presario 1800US
PIII 900MHz
198MB RAM
30GB HD Internal
16MB ATI Rage Mobility 3D
Combo----24X/4x4/12xDVD internal
Floppy Drive
56k
Internal 10/100
Belkin PCMCIA FireWire Card
Que 16x10x40 External FireWire Drive
80GB External 7200rpm FireWire Drive
Now since i got the que drive i have been making more coasters then cd's. It works kinda when it wants to for as long as it wants to. i cn make 4 good cd's then 3 coasters. I found restarting and taking a lot of junk out of the systray helped through msconfig.
i got fed up and i went back to what the lap had on it from the factory. WinME.......... I have ME and had more problems with crashing when i ran that.
anyway........ tats another story.......i loaded up me to test out easy cd creator 5 plat. I loaded as i did before on xp...........NO PROBLEMS FOR ABOUT 50 cds.............
I burned 50 cds and had not one problem.........
I instaled winxp and started burning coasters
i went to the site and DLed all the new drivers and updates
installed like the site said to.........
I stll make coaster. Maybee not as bad as before but i am still PISSED OFF!
Can any body tell me if they had the same prob........... or give me a step by step on how they got theirs to work
Thanks
