I currently use the CD burning ability built into XP Pro for backup purposes onto a CD-RW. In the past I had Adaptec Easy CD Creator installed on this machine, but found that the buring ability built into XP is fine for me. So being the anal person I am, I uninstalled Easy CD Creator. No problems to report but I am finally getting to my question:
Does the CD burning feature built into XP use anything from Adaptec? What I'm getting to is; since I don't use Easy CD Creator anymore, should I have/need any files or drivers on my PC from Adaptec? I am wondering if I never installed Easy CD Creator in the first place, does Microsoft use Adaptec's drivers for it's own internal burning ability? The goal I am trying to achieve is getting rid of every Adaptec file on my machine without hindering my ability to use the internal burning function built into XP.
If it is so, and XP's built in burning function has nothing to do with anything from/by Adaptec, anyone have any idea's what Adaptec DLL's I can remove? And I assume when I try to delete the "Adaptec Shared" folder and it warns me that it may do some damage, I can still delete it?
So for the long winded post, but I love details...
