Jo Bird Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Hi, Running Windows 7, whenever I try to record an LP to disk and choose "Burn to disk", Roxio hangs and just says that it has "stopped working". The whole setup works perfectly well on my Windows XP laptop, but I need to be able to burn LPs to CD on my dad's Windows 7 machine. Tried updating CD drivers, Windows OS, removing any other CD-burning software from system etc. Did anyone else have this problem and were they able to resolve it please? Thanks, Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_Hardin Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Otherwise burning works OK??? If so, then it appears something is broken. Let's try this... Do the Prep Steps to the letter! Then start to install of the Suite, only pick Repair when it is offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sknis Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Jim, if I may butt in here for just a second. Jo, I guess I missed the part about what Roxio program and version are you trying to use? You posted in Creator 2011 but is it possible you have something else? Perhaps an older program that is not compatible with W7? BTW, don't advertise that you are breaking your EULA agreement concerning one license for one computer. Perhaps you neglected to say that you removed it from your computer and installed it on the W7 machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Bird Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Yes, I'm trying to use Creator 2011 on a Windows 7 machine. And of course I uninstalled it from my XP laptop... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jo Bird Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 In response to Jim, yes, I can burn CDs normally with the software. We do have the problem though, that if I burn one photo to a CD, and then try to add another one to the same CD, the W7 machine spits out the CD and says that I need to use a blank CD. And no, I haven't selected the option to finalize the CD, so it should be possible in theory. Very irritated indeed with this software! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim_Hardin Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Whether or not you can “add” to a burned CD depends entirely on HOW the CD was burned the last time!!! That is an entirely different subject and has nothing to do with this. And it has nothing to do with the software but has everything to do with International Standards that were set for Optical Media a long, long time ago… You are used to dealing with Magnetic media and I can assure you that the only common link between Optical media and Magnetic media is that both are round! Now go back and do what I suggested in post #2 and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi,
Running Windows 7, whenever I try to record an LP to disk and choose "Burn to disk", Roxio hangs and just says that it has "stopped working".
The whole setup works perfectly well on my Windows XP laptop, but I need to be able to burn LPs to CD on my dad's Windows 7 machine.
Tried updating CD drivers, Windows OS, removing any other CD-burning software from system etc.
Did anyone else have this problem and were they able to resolve it please?
Thanks,
