When I booted up this morning the computer crashed and I got the blue screen. When i rebooted I was directed to Microsoft and got the following as cause of the crash. I'm using Roxio Record Now Plus.

"Problem caused by Sonic Solutions CD/DVD Recording Software Component (DRVMCDB.SYS)

This problem was caused by Sonic Solutions CD/DVD Recording Software Component (DRVMCDB.SYS). Sonic Solutions CD/DVD Recording Software Component (DRVMCDB.SYS) was created by Sonic Solutions."

Did you recently install another similar program that might conflict with RecordNow?
Try a repair install and see if that helps.

No I didn't. What is a repair install? Through add/delete programs?
Thanks,
Howard

Unfortunately this is a known issue that requires a new installer. I have sent you a private message with a new download.

Sorry for the inconvenience, no one likes blue screens.

Hi - I'm also getting the same error :)  Any chance of posting the download link here?

Thanks,

Before this gets out of hand, take note before posting:

1) This software fix I'm sending out on a per user basis fixes a blue screen or error messages relating to SSRTLN.SYS or DRVMCDB.SYS. Nothing else.

2) This fix only applies to Windows XP. Vista users - you should see this: http://kb.roxio.com/...reator/000131CR

3) If you received this problem just after a Windows update please see the above link, the fix may not help for this problem. Check the article for details.


UPDATE (2/26) - Due to the popularity of this thread, I will now have to require a registered email address to ensure your ownership of the software. You register the software the first time you open it so you may be registered and not even know it. Otherwise, in any Sonic application go to Help -> Register. If you do not want to post your email address on this public forum, please send me a PM with your email address and I'll respond with the link, assuming everything checks out.


Doc and Ladytech, I sent you an PM

I am also getting the blue screen and am unable to boot since erasing pxhelp20.sys and drvmcdb.sys from my driver folder.  I found pxhelp20.sys on my installation disk and copied it to the driver folder (with the XP repair option and command prompt) but I can't find drvmcdb.sys anywhere.  Could you possibly send me a copy of the drvmcdb.sys file?  I can't boot up without it.

---------------------------

(Edited 2/22/07)  I got the driver from another EMC8 user, so you can ignore this request.

Hello Kevin.

Yep... I get the blue screen of death too, but only recently and repeatedly.
I have not installed any new hardware on the computer.
The machine is a Dell Dimension XPS Gen 3 that came preloaded with
Sonic Record Now.  The operating system is windows xp media edition.

The BSOD error message points to DRVMCDB.SYS.

So anything you can do woul be greatly appreciated.

Please read above what this is a fix for.  Those error messages are NOT the ones you posted.  Applying non-applicable fixes will screw you up more.

I was asking because of Kevin J's comment about SSRTLN.SYS as one of the symptoms that the fix is for.  That is one of the blue screens in my list.

Turns out that DLA MAY be responsible for the BAD_POOL_CALLER.  Found a reference in another thread about that and applied.  We'll see if that is enough or if I'm seeing multiple problems.
