I am running on Win XP SP2.  I have been using Roxio EMC Basic DVD Plus 7 for a couple of years.  I went to Win XP about 3 months ago.  But in the past 3 days I have not been able to open ECM.  It goes to the initial page where you select the operation you want.  I select "Create New Audio CD"  (I have also tried others.)  It starts to open then I get this error message "Dragon Engine Initialization Failed".  I have uninstalled and re-installed 3 times, to no avail.  Same problem exists.  I have gone thru software repair and a few other things.  Found a couple of copy and paste .dll things here in this neighborhood.  They did not work either.  Trying to contact Roxio is a laugher.

Anyone have any ideas as to how I can fix this?  I generally use it a lot and don't really like Nero as much.

Thanks
Rocky

Install Napster, check to see if you still get the error and if not, uninstall Napster.
