knight-gkla Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 Does DragtoDisc work on EMC9.1 ? I thought the whole thing was supposed to work with Vista at this update. It's not installed in the pinned instructions above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbrewst Posted May 14, 2007 Report Share Posted May 14, 2007 To tell the truth I'm not sure.When I installed I chose not to install it because it's not really a good app to use for much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im the same, i never liked it and never use it now, so its habit to just remove it....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerus Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 It's a packet writer. Original idea was it that you could just drop files onto a media and be able to use it on other systems. Burns as it copies. Faster than burning the data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burns as it copies. Faster than burning the data. And has slightly less reliabilty than an igloo on the equator - same holds for ALL packet-writing s/w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dave Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 D2D works just fine for me on VISTA. However, keep these ideas in mind when using D2D: 1. Use a quality CD or DVD media. 2. Full format the CD or DVD. 3. Do not burn past the rated CD or DVD's manufacturer's media rating. If the media says 4x then burn at 4x. 4. Use a quality and recommended CD or DVD drive. 5. Keep the CD and DVD drive firmware up-to-date. 6. Keep your software up-to-date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gi7omy Posted July 9, 2007 Report Share Posted July 9, 2007 It may work fine (it usually does) but never overlook the fact that a few months down the line you are quite likely to find your discs are unreadable - that is the big problem with packet writing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dave Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 I have never had that problem and I have been using EMC since version 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R (write once) media doesn't suffer from that issue so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Dave Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 People who push past the manufacturer's media burn rating are most likey the candidates of media failure. Sometimes it may work and then later you find out the hard way. What may work on your PC may not work on a DVD player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHMikeB Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 I never found if it worked for me or not, it caused so many crashes without ever having been actually used I dumped it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
