cdanteek Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 I only clicked on the capture button once but if I double click on it it still does the Cannot Initiate Task thing. Clicking it twice tries to open it twice and you get the "Cannot Initiate Task" in task manager. Now answer the question I asked in the post before. So what didn't work? How much PC experience do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs4Life Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Okay but before I do that, for task manager what should I show you, just the applications, or the processes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdanteek Posted December 12, 2012 Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 In front of my roxio panel it says loading for like a split second and then the loading thing goes away before I can barely read it, then nothing happens or opens up. Reboot the PC and do it again. If it does the same thing check task manager and post what it shows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs4Life Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 Well I dont exactly have the most PC experience, but I will get by, Okay so when I click on the Capture button the loading thing pops up but it never loads fully and never turns on the game capture software so I guess when I turn on the software my trying to click on it twice because I am clicking it so quickly it tries to load twice but It cant because no video capturing software can fun while another capturing software is in use, but I dont get why my roxio isnt working and coming up with the capturing software.

Chiefs4Life Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2012 And I have installed it and uninstalled it and reinstalled it again if you didnt know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeaSTWiTHiN Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Even after you only click it once the "capture" window does not pop up? Are all your cords connected properly? When you get Roxio open, go to task manager, then right click Roxio, clock "Go to processes", then right click and choose "End Process Tree" if there are any hidden applications linked to Roxio they should all be terminated. Also this is slightly "canned" but run as administrator and make sure Roxio is allowed in your firewalls. That is pretty much the ONLY solution I can think of for your problem. It thinks you have multiple apps running, so if you only click it once just be patient and let it load, mine can take quite some time "15-20 seconds" to load if my laptop isn't quite fired up and running smooth. If your problem persists, who you gonna call? Roxio support that's who.... I ain't afraid of no posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogdens Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 And I have installed it and uninstalled it and reinstalled it again if you didnt know. You could try this, download Revo Uninstall http://download.cnet...4-10687648.html and use it in the Moderate mode to get rid of all Roxio folders, etc. Reboot, install the software again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs4Life Posted December 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Okay I am not at the house with my roxio right now I will get back to this thanks for the help guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Android1192 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I had the same problem, a quick computer restart fixed it. If that doesn't work and you have re-installed the software then you are probably screwed. Edit: You should remove the software, RESTART, re-install. If that doesn't fix it then..........you're probably screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefs4Life Posted December 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Well when I turn on my roxio it works good and I click on the "Capture" button and this happens, It worked great at first and I recorded like 4 videos of RockSmith and now I want to do some Zombies gameplay. And I got through the error once but another error popped up and said that they couldnt find any video output or something towards that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogdens Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 When this happens open task manager, find the process and end it, see if that clears it. Do you have any other Roxio software installed?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs4Life Posted December 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Well Here is a picture of my task manager only roxio is being used? And I reinstalled the gamecap software if that would make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdanteek Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Right click 'Cannot Initate Task' then click 'Go To Process'. Tell us or show us ( screen cap ) what process it shows highlighted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
