I am trying again to install and use Creator 8...but still doing the same thing it did when I purchased it when It first arrived on the shelves...It will not recogize either of my cd drives...I have installed the lates updates and the pxengine1_08_34a.exe.  Nothing seems to work...have disabeled my virus program (Trend).  Only installed the bare bones... creator classic...on the disc...and still will not stop locking up my pc when I try and read a cd rom....which then I have to do a cold boot to get out of the lock up and restart my pc.  I thought for sure by now with  creator 9 out...that 8 would finally be fixed.  Also had my spouse install it on his pc and exactly the same thing happened...very sorry I ever purchased this version...was expensive as it was new on the market.  please if anyone can offer new suggestions...thanks!   Chero

Hi,


amd 3.2 gig cpu
1 gig ram
200 gig hard drive plus two other drives for storage

Not sure what you mean by mc upper and lower filter?  So probably haven't tried that.
