MF4 and Roxio Drag to Disk Compatibility problems

Post by jcb2354 »

Through much trial and error I have found that when I have the drivers for Roxio Drag-to-Disk installed I cannot burn a disk using mf4. The only work around I have found so far is to prep all of my files to DVD directories, go in and uninstall Roxio, burn the disks, then reinstall Roxio.

Is there a better way? I use Drag-to-Disk to get 3 CD's of files between work and home so I need Roxio (or some compatible program) running.

Thanks.

If you open up "My Computer" and "Right-Click" on the DVD/CD burner is there an item called "DATA-ADD" or similiar. Roxio "Drag To Disk" may also
show up on that menu. If so, those programs conflict with each other.
If you use "Drag To Disc" then un-install Ulead Data-Add" and reboot.

When using MF you should be able to remove "Drag To Disk" from being active/residently loaded in memory. Usually by "Right-Clicking" on the icon on the bottom right of the screen taskbar and selecting the option of Exit. The option Close or exit may do that. Depends, whatever the case the icon on the taskbar or active icon should disappear. You should be able to re-activate it again without re-booting by running the program. I haven't used "Drag To Disk" in quite sometime.

I have Nero version 6.6 installed. I removed InCD because it conflicts with data-add and am now using Data-Add to format and drag & drop to CD's/DVD's.

Hope this helsp,

MD
