since i installed EMC7 i can't use my windows media player to create a cd because my dvd recorder doesn't reconize the blank disc. i was told to uninstall "direct to disc" from roxio, i uninstalled the whole roxio program and wmp worked. my question is can i just uninstall just the direct to disc from the roxio media suite?

Of course. In fact if you choose Custom install you don't even have to install it…

Otherwise: Control Panel – Add or Remove Programs – Roxio EMC 7 – Change. When the installer runs, scroll down to D2D and choose, "This feature will not be available."

Actually it should not interfere and a firmware upgrade for your burner would probably cure the message.

I'm not certain if you can uninstall it if you have the downloaded version.

However, if that's the case, you can do a Windows\Start\Run and type msconfig    
Under the Startup tab, uncheck DrgToDsk, apply, ok.

That will keep the program from starting up when you start your computer and also eliminate the problem.
