Folks I am using Roxio Easy Media Creator 7 and after using it for several years all of a sudden the Drag to Disk quit working. When booting up my Windows XP computer I get the message "Drag-to-Disk coud not start because components necessary to run are missing.Please re-install Drag-to-Disk.

I have un-installed the program, re-installed the complete software and still I get the same message. The little drag to disk pop up box that use to come up during boot up no longer comes up.

Is there any solutions to this problem that someone can help me with?

Thanks,

Paul

If you 'updated' to IE7 and/or media player 11 - roll back to IE6 and WMP9/10

You may have to re-install D2D after

I just checked and I do have IE7 and WMP11. I will try and see if I can figure out how to go backwards and re-load the IE6 and WMP9/10.

Uninstall both from control panel, add/remove programs

They will moan a bit but force it through - as I said tho, you will almost certainly need to re-install EMC afterwards
