musictune Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Hello. I am a new member who has recently subscribed to this forum in order to search for information and help. I have been using Easy CD Creator 6 for many years seamlessly but suddenly when I try to use it, it crashes. I have Windows XP operating system, Internet Explorer 6, Window Media Player 10, Real Player 10. I proceed the following way in order to use Easy CD Creator Classic 6. I choose under project, Data. I drag and drop the files I want to burn. I load the BLANK CDR on the cd/dvd driver. Then I click on burn to disc. A window comes up under the title of Record SetUp. There, I choose Write Speed (16 X in this case), select Buffer Underrun Protection, choose 'Test and Record' under Record Options and Disc At Once under Record Method and I click OK. The program starts the simulation / test phase. When the Phase Progress reaches 100%, Disc Progress is in 2 % and from that moment NOTHING HAPPENS. I can hear the CD R spinning but no progress in the recording. When I try to close it, the program does not respond. It freezes / crashes completely. I try to close it many times but to no avail. I open Windows Task Manager and click End Process / End Process Tree to close Creator Classic but NOTHING HAPPENS. I also cannot open the CD Tray to extract the CD R. THE ONLY WAY TO CLOSE THE PROGRAM IS BY RESTARTING MY LAPTOP. I have another recording program and that program works perfectly in EVERY WAY. I would very much love to help me on this issue / matter. Yours Sincerely, MusicTune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_hardin Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 These symptoms often point to a problem with the burner. Check for a firmware update for the burner. If you have the discs and download the updates for your version, try uninstall/reboot/install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musictune Posted March 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 Hello. Thank you so much for the reply. Would you be so kind to let me know in detail what I should do? I have heard about updating cd /dvd drivers with firmware and having problems with it. I could carry out a simulation burning of an audio cd and it worked but I see the project that does not work here is when I intend to burn a DATA CD. Thank you so much.d These symptoms often point to a problem with the burner. Check for a firmware update for the burner. If you have the discs and download the updates for your version, try uninstall/reboot/install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ml Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 You mentioned that you have another CD burning program. Does that have a packet writing software package included? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
