DefBringer

well I can't delete my post but I meant to post this in the XP forum....

Does anybody know if the Via 4-in-1 drivers are supposed to be loaded?

sweet....thank you. I'll give it a shot.

After a clean XP reinstall Nero still won't burn. It always freezes up at exactly 7%. The built-in burner software now works, but after 4 tries to making a simple data CD one of the files is always corrupt. I will try one last time setting speed to 1x, but this is really unacceptable. Previously I have burned .ISO's at 12x without any problem whatsoever.

I have an Epox 8k7a (amd 761 north, VIA south). This is a new system for me on a new OS so I have no idea if going to Win2000 will work for me. I haven't loaded VIA 4--in-1 because I thought it was unecessary with XP? Anyway.....mine ALWAYS freezes up at around 7% in Nero. This is seriously disappointing....i have 8 coasters I've made today thinking it was a file problem... I'm using a Plextor 1210a (or whatever)

I've tried using several different programs inluding XP's built-in CD-writing software...it almost never works, freezes up, etc. I sure hope this is something they fix!!!!

I'm going to try reinstalling it tonight....I'll let you guys know what it says. It might not be a problem any longer because I now have Office XP to install.

There have been countless stories of the Liveware not working with XP. Solution: use the drivers that come with XP. If you have a 4 speaker or 5.1 setup you'll just have to wait until Creative Labs releases the proper drivers. If somebody else has a solution I'd love to hear it......

My trusty Office 2000 CD will NOT install on my XP machine. It brings up this bizarre error message as soon as I try to run setup. Is my system corrupt or what? Is XP worth the $300?

www.divx.com there is a quick fix there listed in their forums. It involves simply removing a file in the C:\windows\system\ folder. I forgot the name of the file but it only has a two letter extension...acdivx.av or something like that. I had the same problem and this fixed it.

Thanks....I tried that. It reports that a previous change to my system is still waiting to be registered and I need to reboot. My problem is: I installed CuteFTP. Now, everytime I click on a link to a file hosted on a ftp server it launches CuteFTP to download it. I've uninstalled CuteFTP but now IE doesn't do anything when I click on a ftp link...it just sits there.

nobody knows?

I think my IE6 is corrupt....somehow it won't let me download from any FTP servers. I think CuteFTP incorrectly tried to mesh with it and fouled it up. Is there a quick and easy way to get a fresh install of IE6 without reinstalling XP?

Worked like a charm. Thank you very much!
