Unable to begin disc creation (Fixed)

Post by Solar Granulation »

I recently received Ulead VideoStudio 10+ as a birthday present and today installed it on a very recently installed system (various new components led to this.) I'm running Win2kSP4 on a P4 1.5GHz cpu with a Lite-On LH-20A1H DVD rewriter.

I installed VS without having installed any of the nero software that came with my DVD rewriter, so that can't have interfered. I had no other similar software installed, nothing that (as far as I am aware) should have denied VS access to my DVD RW. The only other DVD-related software I'd installed came with VS.

Now, on to the specific error!

When I open VS, start a new project, go to the share tab and click "Create Disc" I receive the following error:
Failed to load the resource, please re-install Ulead VideoStudio.

I have reinstalled, a complete removal/reinstallation and still receive this error.

It occurs immediately upon clicking of the "Create Disc" button, without presenting me with any options. I had nothing in my timeline.

Taking into account everything that I have said, does anybody have any advice? I would be most grateful!

Update!

I no longer receive the error. In fact, the disc creation module runs! (Although I haven't tested it to exhaustion.)

Between tests I made three changes. I downloaded Real Player 10, the icm.xvid codec and installed AVS Disc Creator 2.1.

I believe it was likely the last of those three that did the trick. Not sure how as it's not my field, but I'm happy anyway.

Since you stated a recently installed system I was going to suggest checking to make sure your dvd writer was running in DMA mode. Win2000 you usually had to manually make this change from PIO to DMA mode.

You will have to make sure the other software doesn't interfere with the ulead burning software. Time will tell.

All is well :) Burnt a DVD and everything.

For future reference, could you either tell me or suggest a good guide on how to change mode, please?
