After burning CDs for some time with success, both video and music, I'm getting "Writing Errors" when trying the same thing lately, ruining the CD. Here's what I've done so far:Changed the brand of CD from Phillips to Maxell got "write errors" Went from Roxio Easy CD and DVD Creator to Windows Media Player same problem.Tried to contact Roxio tech support.they make it almost impossible, no results Tried to contact Sony (software for the Roxio).they gave me a phone number that ended up being the Hilton Hotel! Then, when I called back, Sony was closed.Went to my "old" Compaq computer running Win98SE, and can burn Roxio CDs successfully, but the system is too slow for video.Hope this is enough info for you expert-type people - I'm trying to avoid system restore.
ROXIO version of GOBACK being the cause of the problem. when I had to do a reinstall of windows and noticed that Windows Explorer wasn't showing my second and third drives.I know and very easily fixable by going into Disk Management. drives were showing in Disk Management, there was no letter assigned to them.
I have a dell inspiron 6000, with a dvd drive. I've installed Roxio Easy media creator 8, evertyhing was perfect, until i insert a data disc, the computer became freezed! and the problem is with every disc, it looks like a conflict, because i leave the computer, for like 20 minutes, and when i came back, the computer was normal, and allow me to use it like nothing happened. I uninstalled the Roxio Software and the problem was solved,
I have replaced my hard drive completely. One thing I really miss about my old setup was that I had Roxio disc copier, which really came in handy for my job. Since I no longer have the application CD that it came on, I am slightly SOL and have to spend a lot of time burning copies from media player.Does anyone know of a simple, free program that will allow me to copy a disc that is in the D: drive to a blank one in the E: drive?
neither wmp 11 or roxio recognizes a blank disc. when i try to burn a disc (dvd or cd) both wmp 11 and roxio tells me to insert a blank disc. i have tried putting a disc in first, or wait for the program to tell me to insert disc but neither way works!:
When I start the computer, I get a screen freeze and have to press Ctrl,Alt,Del once before any programs will startup. A lot of probs with internet connection and slowness while surfing as well as a lot of pop up ads in my face.
There are system boxes coming up with registry and dll errors and the whole system seems SLOW.
The family computer is playing up and to the best of my knowledge the computer in question just simply suddenly stopped working as it should. I am unable to get the 'default' welcome screen upon start up and am getting the logon box where you type in a username and passworld. I know how to get rid of this, user accounts>enable welcome screen - but it will not solve the problem.This is just the start of the problems. I get a whole host of errors which popup one after another.
I am being shown "script error","page error, you may need to change browser settings",and "behind firewall" when I try and send files and photos. I've tried everything I know to fix this, but I still see these errors and still cannot send photos while I'm online.
I'm trying to obtain write access to a shared folder on my computer via the following command:code: C:Documents and SettingsXXX>net use x: \127.0.0.1docs /u:XXXThe command completed successfully.If I go to My Computer > X: (Where X is the new network drive) I have read access to the files. However, I do not have write access. (For example, if I try to create a new folder)If I'm logged on as 'XXX', which is the user whom the folder belongs to, why do I not have write access to the folder when accessing it as a network drive?I am able to write to the folder if I go to C:Documents and SettingsXXX.docs but not through X:...
Every morning after I turn on my computer, the hardisk lights will keep flashing for about one hour and system is slowed down. I use task manager found that svhost.exe had 1.3G I/O read and 600M I/O write after PC only had run for only one hour. What's the cause of it and how can I stop it?
I am trying to write a batch file that would make a specific program a default over Windows Picture and Fax viewer.Reading on other forums, I've input the following into Notepad:ftype jpegfile="C:Program FilesNeroNero 7Nero PhotoSnapPhotoSnap.exe" "%1" When I right-click on any .jpg file after that, under properties, I see that Nero PhotoSnap is now the default program, but when I open the file it opens in Windows Picture and Fax viewer still.What am I doing wrong? Do I need to add registry changes to complete this process?
I have a Kingmax 256MB Memory stick which we used once and went to format it and got the prompt "Write Protected Disk" can any one tell how to unwrite protect it. It has no switch on it to lock it or write protect it.
I recently bought a refurbished Dell OptiPlex GX620 computer that came supplied with XP Pro S2 and S3 installed, a DVD/CD RW device and a floppy drive installed. I installed a Nero 6 program that I used with my old Win 98SE system and was able to copy files and folders from my old computer to be transferred to the new one. Yesterday (4/2/10) I tried to play a DVD and nothing happened. I chose to run E: and saw the various chapters available on the DVD but when I went into Media Player 11, it told me that it could not play the DVD. I tried another DVD but got the same notice. The notice window suggested that I move my video resolution down to 640Xxxx and lower my colors down to 16 bit from 32 bit. I also tried that but no joy. Can anyone suggest what might be happening here? I have a 3.6 Gig processor in this rig so I don't think it's a speed problem.
If the DVD burner is not the Master of the two DVD drives, your burning software will experience some problems. So, after installing Windows Vista as a "dual boot" operating system, I switched the DVD drives back so the Pioneer DVR-106D = MASTER and the Pioneer 116 = SLAVE. Now I have a write problem to the Pioneer DVR-106D drive. When I attempt to either copy a DVD or just burn a data disk, I get an "INTERNAL TARGET FAILURE" error message. Happens every time now.As my system is already set up as a "Dual Boot" operating system with Windows XP & Vista, I cannot format my "C" drive and reinstall Windows XP to fix this problem.QUESTION: Does anyone know how to correct this problem without formatting and reinstalling Windows xp?
Using Windows XP Professional when trying to move info to or from a written CD-RW I get a message that the disk is write protected. Remove the protection or use new disk. How do I remove Write Protection?
My write protection seems to be activated on all folders.The box where the check is supposed to be is blackened and when I click to remove it, it goes away.However when I try to remove the folder an error pops up and when I bring up the properties again it shows the box is blackened again.I don't seem to have a problem with files, it only seems to be the folders.
On old Win 2k system I can Access my files on my USB Flash Disk, however in Windows XP Home system when ever I try to change a file I get a write protection error.
For some reason, 1 of my DVD's has become, erm.. strange. There are files on it, but Windows (XPHome SPII, automatic updates) states it's empty. All the other DVD's work fine. This was one of the first DVD's I burned on this machine, round about the time SPII came out.
How do I tell XP to write the data NOW? It is very tiresome when one goes to shut down, and watch all the drives power up to receive those last bytes of data that would be lost forever if the system crashed.Is there a setting that allows one to force XP to perform these writes at an appropriate time,e.g., BEFORE powering down a disc? Or preferably with no delayed writes whatsoever?
after reading ms + others I have a couple questions the insert disk can only be a floppy? that can't be right todays pc's only have cd or dvd or possible usb any way to write the backup .bkf file to a dvd instead of some hd other than the c drive? the writeup talks about formatting the entire c drive before the new windows install, is it not possible to just just reinstall windows, in the old windows folder, leaving the drive intact, so you still have documents and settings, program files, etc, so that when the asr restores the os image, all the old programs etc are still there ready to run?
1) I am unable to record data (mostly JPEGs) to a CD-R using WinXP Pro and my sony dru500ax DVD/CD recorder. I have in the past been able to do this with no problem using either the built in windows functionality nor Nero. Now I am unable to use either method and I don't know what has changed. Both methods get partially through the write process and fail (but nothing ends up being written on the CD). 2) I am unable to read CDs that were burned by my father on his computer. The disks clearly have stuff on them and I've been able to get to the content on other machines (at work, at friends, WinXP, Win2K3, etc) But when I put them in my drive and open the drive in explorer it shows that nothing is written on the CD
I had to hit the ole restore button and my computer bought me back to the beginning ( XPsp1). When I try to install SP2 I keep getting :" Unable to read or write to database" And then it said:" Service pack 2 did not complete" I also check the Microsoft website and i said I was getting a error code: 0x800710D9
I have several Administrator users. For each one I have set the username folder in Documents and Settings to allow network sharing including 'allow network users to change my files'. For all but one of the users this works fine and I can access and write files from another PC on the network. However in one case I can only read files and get the following message if I try to write: 'Cannot copy [filename]: Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.' The settings appear to be the same for all users so I do not understand why I cannot write in this case. I've tried removing sharing then reapplying it, restarting PC, etc.
I'm trying to use iTunes with my new ipod mini, but the My Music folder on my computer wont grant me access to write anything to it, or alter anything in it and I'm not sure why? It asks me to check whether it has full or write-protection, but it shouldnt have seeing as I am the only user on my computer? anyone be of assistance? its bugging me greatly!
