[RESOLVED] EZ Cd 5 Platinum

[Ubar]

When almost done recording the disc I get a blue screen and it says:

ADDRESS EB75A1C9 base at EB758000, DATESTAMP 3B55C3BA-CDRALW2K.SYS

I am using win2k as you can see. Anyone have and tips on how to cure this?

Have you downloaded all the updates from Roxio.com?

Note to self: Re-index brain cells, database corruption present.

Yes I have, I currently reloaded as they said to because 5.0 and 2k have a problem. I will let ya know if their fix works.

I am curious as well about this issue with W2K and Platinum.

DOS isn't dead it just smells funny

Ok what ya do is install platinum but use the custom setup and DON'T install Take 2. After instal;l is done it will ask to reboot say NO. Then get the win2k patch from Roxio and install it. After that reboot. After I installed it this way I burned 38 discs in a row no problem.

Easy CD 5 has lots of compatibility problems. Their support page lists zip drives, 3 Com Network cards and Promise ATA 100 controllers. If win 2k won't finish loading... unplug the zip drive and burner.. should boot then. Also, you gotta have a disk in zip drive. After many hours of problems I uninstalled the program. It left numerous footprints in the registry and had to end up formating and starting over..

I found that Roxio was a waste of time and went back to Nero not a problem since.... (fingers crossed)

The only problem I found with 5 is that it did not associate .ico's. Discovered this morning when I went to burn the new Red Hat disks and the .ico's were generic windows icons.

Anyone know about this problem or a way around it? I had to reinstall Adaptec's 3 to burn the CD, 5 is so much nicer to use...

Platinum has a nice interface, I also managed to keep the functional part of EZCDC 4.0 installed as well, just in case.
