There are three that it could be. Creator 2010, Easy Media Creator 10 or Creator 10.x with a two letter designation to show OEM designer (e.g. DE = Dell). You must also let us know if your computer exceeds the minimum requirements. You said that this is a reinstall. Why did you have to do that? I think there were some items left behind or deleted accidentally during your uninstall. Try this. Make a restore point or a disc back up. Download and UNinstall Creator "10" using Revo Uninstaller (Free download from cnet.com). Do so in the moderate mode. Accept that it will delete some (lots) registry entries. Do this prep. Keep your anti-virus OFF; not just paused and reinstall. This has a lot of different problems for many people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you or did you have an earlier version on your computer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johno8 Posted January 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 i got this around 2004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sknis Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 i got this around 2004 I have been looking for solutions to this issue and the only one that even came close was to uninstall and then use Microsoft's Installer Clean Up Utility (google for it) to remove the lisitng for EMC 10 and for DirectX installer service. Microsoft no longer supports that utility so you do have to google for it and read the instructions. For reference you can go here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bimicher Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 i got this around 2004 Since EMC 10 did not come out until Sep 2007 or so, you must have been using something else in 2004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandpabruce Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 then why is it telling me do do it ?????? thanks johno You may have had a version of EMC 9 on your computer, before you installed EMC 10. But, since you fail to answer any of the questions asked of you, you will probably have to find the answer on your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sknis Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 hi maybee i didnt get this till 2007 but this is the only version i have had,easy media creator 10. thanks, johno. I refer you again to post #2 - use Revo Uninstaller to Uninstall all Roxio and Sonic applications that show up. Make sure you select to delete all the entries in your registry that it suggests. Do not skip that step or get bent out of shape with the amount of entries and the time that it takes. Reinstall after preparing your computer as in the link in post 2. There may have been something pre-installed on your computer when you got it so make sure that you carefully look for ANYTHING Roxio or SONIC. You have XP do you have SP3? Are you using IE 9? What anti-virus do you have/did you use? It is possible that it did not remove all the bad guys. Try this free check programto see if your computer is still infected with rootkits or other.. I have no other suggestions. Remember that we are users and do not work for Roxio so our suggestions are from things that have worked for us or for others. We are not looking over your shoulder to see if you are following the driections exactly or taking shortcuts. If you want to get it to work, perhaps more attention to datail would be in order.
