Hello,
I am having problem of having EMC9's MyDVD freezes up on me when i choose to burn dvds.  There were suggestions that by updating the driver or uninstalling and reinstalling the video card, the problem can be resolved.  My video card is NVIDIA GEFORCE 7300 LE and since i bought the computer from Dell a couple of weeks ago, i assume that the driver is current.  The problem is that Dell doesn't supply any disk with the computer and i am wondering how i can uninstall and reinstall the driver without the disc,

I am embarassingly new at this and i would appreciate any help any of you folks out there can provide.

Many thanks
Ataloss :)

The computer is new to you but parts may have sat on a shelf for a long time.  Go to the Dell web site and look for updates for your system.  Since they don't supply discs, they are pretty good about updates.  Follow the instructions carefully.

Check to see if they have updated firmware for your burner.  Be extra careful about installing the firmware.  Get help if you are unsure.

If you would post your computer specs or model, someone will point the way.
Regardless of what I say about computer maintenance, there is no need to defrag a solid state hard drive.

I, too, have a problem with burning dvds.  After identifying the photos and the audio the system locks after I click "burn".  Have reinstalled several times.  Any suggestions??

Yes. Start a new post with some specifics on what you are doing. There are many ways and programs in the product for doing slideshows with audio. Need specifics on what steps you are taking, which part of the suite you are using, what you mean exactly by "locking up", and some system specs information (especially the video card info).

Not only check DELL for firmware updates for your drive but also suggest that you check with the manufacturer's website for your particular drive model for firmware updates too, in case Dell doesn't have any.

I also have a new Dell XPS 410.  My Roxie Creator 9 also is giving me problems.  I can create photo and audio but when I click on "burn" the system locks.  Silas

I have a new Dell XPS 410.  After accessing to Create slide ShowI add photos and audio.  I click "Next" to the Burn Disk program.  When I click on "Burn Project" the system freezes and will not proceed with the program.
