Welcome to WD koolmo .

What is "E:\" ? (CD-rom or RW - harddrive ?)
Can you select to save else where ?

Ok, I hate to be the one who notices the obvious but.... If you can install other software and play music CD's.... Guess What? That only leaves one option left.... How hold is your CD-ROM Drive? It may not have the proper error correction to actually read the TOC ( Table of Contents)

Have you uninstalled photoimpact? You say you have a back up copy, do you have the original too?
