Brendon Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 There's still no clear cause for this strange behavior that's showing itself yet. I'll get the little things out of the way first. -if your Autorun has been turned off, setup.exe is the file on the installer CD to run manually. To turn that back on, go to My Computer and right-click the DVD drive, select Properties and adjust the settings in Autoplay. [You are running in XP ??] -you say you've followed the uninstall procedure, but still found "remnants". Was that the full, clean uninstall as shown in that link? What sort of remnants did you find after that? -you mentioned you have installed EMC9 on other hard drives. Were they in different systems, and did they all show these 'no test, eject the disc, no verify' symptoms after installation? OR were they all connected to the same system that you're still having trouble with? -can you think of anything - installs, uninstalls, updates - which happened around the time but before the software went bad?

Jim_Hardin Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Verify selection is located under File – Project Properties and has absolutely nothing to do with Test & Burn or Write Only under the Burn options. Test merely puts the Burner through the writing process without turning on the Write Laser. It only 'tests' the ability of your system to keep up with the data stream and nothing else. Verify on the other hand has never been fully defined! It does much, much less than one would expect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvslater Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Are you saying that I don't need verify or test? And if that is true, what about validate and dont forget that creator will not wright if test then wright is selected. I dont see project properties under file, in creator 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvslater Posted January 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 There is something wrong with "the file". Get another copy of it. I will go backwards in the burn process. The last thing I see is "The disk cannot be mounted to verify the files that were burned." However the file was burned. I had opened the psd file and saved it to desktop as jpeg, before I started. Next from the begging this time; I tried 5 jpeg files, when I add a file, a screen flashes (Cant tell what it says) and the file is added. This time I selected Test and Wright; the test completes, but the program stops and I get the "error trying to open file." Next I tried to wright only as far as I can tell the program did not validate, but it did wright, but it did not mount. It did burn the files. Next tried to burn the same files (psd) that I could not burn before; when I click Add, nothing happens, I drag and drop the files to the Project Window. Burn with wright only; it does not validate; it wrights; it closes session; will not mount; completes and ejects disk; the files are burned.

I dont see project properties under file, in creator 9 If you don't have project properties then you may not have the full Retail EMC 9 version, but a OEM version. You never did say what version you have. If the program came with your computer or burner then you have a cut down OEM version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would also help if you provided the information being asked. Did you "buy" the software somewhere, like from Roxio, a store, or an internet site, or was it included with a burner or pc system you purchased?

And if that is true, what about validate and dont forget that creator will not wright if test then wright is selected. I dont see project properties under file, in creator 9 It may be under File/Project Settings not properties What do you mean by "creator will not wright if test then wright is selected"?. "Test then write" is one of 3 burn options available Validating a project allows you to verify that the source contents have not been moved, deleted, renamed, or modified since you added them to the project. If an item cannot be found, you are prompted to delete the item from the project before recording the project to disc. ps. the correct spelling of "write" is "write" not wright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvslater Posted April 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I verify my dvd burn by running a slide show in photoshop cs2-I make sure I am looking at the disc I just burned. Is there any problems with this? The reason for this is is when I try to Test then Wright, I get the Error: There was an error trying to open the file. Next I try to burn with only wright selected and I get the Error; Disc Mount Failure: This Disc Cannot be mounted to verify the filesthat were burned. How can I fix these errors?

nvslater Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 I forgot what I was suppose to find under file/properties. Anyway under file>project settings is Validate = checked Verify = checked If Test then Write is selected creator gives the error "There was an error trying to open the file". And wont Burn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvslater Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 On the other hand if write is selected, creator appears to burn the dvd, but will not verify. Error "This disc cannot be mounted to verify the files that were burned." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And wont Burn Creator Classic is telling you that it doesn't like the file you are trying to burn. I never use the verify option since I find it totally unreliable.

nvslater Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 That's why I asked about photoshop slide show, to verify. Do you use another means to verify? What kind of file do you suppose creator would like. I have tried jpeg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brendon Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 Did you install the software on three separate systems, and if so did they all show these 'no test, eject the disc, no verify' symptoms after installation? What I'm getting at, is if you're always booting on the same C: and installing the software to different internal or network drives, then where the software is stored means little if it's always run in the same system or software environment and we'd expect it to always behave the same. It's likely down to some software quirk on that system. However if you have installed it on three different systems in your LAN and it misbehaved identically in each of the three systems, then I would be suspecting that it's caused by something - perhaps Operating System updates or AV or some program - that you're running on all three systems.

Brendon Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Hi, You're not giving me much information. Can we start from the beginning, please? Please answer these questions. Is your burner reading discs okay? What program in the EMC 9 suite are you trying to burn a disc with? What sort of a disc are you trying to burn? (CD, DVD, write-once, rewriteable?) Did you format the disc first? What type of output disc are you trying to make? (data disc, video DVD, audio?) Please describe the steps you take to do this, starting from the beginning of the attempt to burn. How large (in bytes) is the file you try to burn? Have you ever done this successfully before?
