Help! Trying To Burn Dvd In Roxio-2009-Mydvd

[Hannah Bee]

Hi,

 

Forgive me if this is posted in the wrong place I am desperate for help! I've been having SERIOUS trouble with this project. FYI my computer's video drive has been having problems lately so that's been making my computer shut down whenver I watch video, so that might be part of the problem. But I only bought this computer a few months ago!

 

I finally finished formating everythign the way I want it to be and now it won't write! I click 'WRITE' and I recieve the message that says there are a few unlinked videos, I click "write anyway" and it sits there frozen then after a while closes.

 

The project is solid videos so maybe it's too much for it? Plus, my new computer combined with the older program has been fickle anyway. The total GB for the project is over 3,000 I think... and I have it on LP.

 

Thank you in advance!

-Hannah

What O/S (XP/Win7/Win8) is on your new computer?.

[sknis]

Please tell us about your computer via attaching the text from the dxdiag.exe evaluation of your computer, Follow these instruction carefully (link)

 

What does you computer manufacturer say about the frequent shut downs? Does Windows see your burners?

 

3000GB? no way !

 

 

BTW, do not change the default font on these forums. Your post is hard to read.

[Hannah Bee]

@ogdens I am using Windows 7.

 

@sknis I'm sorry about the font, I didn't know that was a rule. I'm not sure how to attach a file to this message, or which part of the DxDiag file you need. Here's the first part of it:

I am very sure that it was 3,000 GB but you're right that does sound insane. Any time I go to edit the project my computer shuts off and I end up having to hold the on/off button on my tower to get things back to normal but... I'll bring it up and check then edit back here if it wasn't that big of a project. Thank you so much for your help thus far!

 

EDIT: Silly me, the project is "3302.0 MB"

Creator 2010 is the first version compatible with W-7.

Creator 2010 is the first version compatible with W-7.

Okay, so now I know that Roxio Creator 2010 and newer are the only ones that will work. I will have to buy the new version. But what about all my work? I've spent close to two months getting this production together! It's very intricate and complex! Is there a way I could transfer it if I bought the new version? Or is there a way just to write this and get it off my computer so I could remove the old program?

 

Thank you!

Backward forward compatibility has never been very good, sorry!

 

Always research your software before updating to a new Windows Version. Even Windows compatibility software is wrong on half of the software it tells you will work in a new OS.

 

The NXT version is a first generation of Corel buying Roxio. I would recommend C2012 over CNXT.

Check Amazon and eBay for a unopened retail Boxed Copy too.

Thank you so much for those recommendations and links.

 

But I'm confused, where do I go from here with my production? Is there a way to write it to a disc? Or is my work all for nothing?

You said you can't write it to disc?

 

Can you output, export as, in videowave to your hard drive?

There would be no point to output since Hannah has "unlinked videos" in her project. Whether those Unlinked errors are due to W7 problems is hard to tell.

[Hannah Bee]

To answer both of your questions, yes I had output the video to my harddrive before. But for some reason the video and the sound weren't matched up so peoples' lips didn't match what was being said and it was a terrible mess! But that was before my computer was so loaded down and I don't think it would do that now.

 

And the unlinked videos aren't anything I would have needed so that was good.

 

THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN SOLVED!!

I defragged my computer, and it must have cleared up more space because I computer was able to function better and it wrote the disc! Thank goodness. Now I can buy a newer Roxio version and never have to deal with that again! Thank you so much for your help!

[cdanteek]

Corel bought Roxio and Creator NXT is there first Roxio product.

 

IMO it's a mixed bag not knowing what direction to take.

 

I would recommend trying to find Creator 2012 Pro on the cheap somewhere.

[Hannah Bee]

Thank you for your advice. That's just what I'll do then!

[grandpabruce]

Thank you for your advice. That's just what I'll do then!

 

And, if you really have lack of space, on your hard drive, I would recommend getting another, LARGE hard drive.

Tool kit for cleaning up your computer - all free -- look at Revo Uninstaller, CCleaner and any of the defragmenters. Do not use a defragmenter on a Solid state hard drive.
