Sucess Recipe For Installing Creator 2009

[UT Fan]

After reading the comments in this section and spending 6 hours of personal frustration and failure I came upon this install recipe that works. It worked on my laptop and I had a client that needed help with the install and it worked perfectly for him.

1. You must have a copy of milcore.dll

if you are on a Vista machine it is in the system32 folder under windows you are not as lucky if using XP at least not on my machine, copy to your desktop and to a safe place like my documents in case you ever need it again.

2.Get the instructions for a clean install that are pinned to this list and follow it to the end.

3. Go to www.microsoft.com and locate and download Direct X version 9C runtime about 89 MB and DotNet 3.5 SP1 and install both.

4. Run the installer for Creator 2009.

5. When it finishes it will ask you to restart just say no for now.

6. Locate your copy of milcore.dll and copy to your c:windows\system 32 folder.

7. Restart your computer and then start Creator 2009 and happy burning.

 

One last thought it would be a great help to the user community for Roxio to make milcore.dll available for download. Hope this helps.

UT FAN,

 

-Does installing Direct X version 9C runtime, DotNet 3.5 SP1, or Creator 2009 delete MILCore.dll from \Windows\system32 ?

-If so, which one does it?

-What effect does losing or using the DLL have on the install of Creator 2009, please ??

How do you overwrite milcore.dll?

 

Even in safemode after going into folder options and unclicking "Hide Protected operating system files" I still get access denied. I am part of the Admin group.

 

I have milcore.dll on another almost identical machine, the "created" and "Accessed" timestamps changed on this one, but both files have the same "Modified" timestamps.

 

On the machine w/o C2009 all three dates are Jan 19 2008, 12:34:49.

Creator 2009 SP1 should address the .Net Framework 3.5 related milcore.dll issue. Go to Help -> Check for updates to download SP1 update for your Creator 2009.

Notes: SP1 is available on the Software Update page for Creator 2009 now. (https://www.roxio.com/enu/support/c2009/software_updates.html)

Maybe a better idea would be to get MS to fix the 'fix' that took it out in the first place
