Description:
I'm getting one of the following errors:

Easy CD Creator is being used by Easy CD Creator
CD-R is currently used by Adaptec eraser

How can I resolve these errors?

This information applies to the following product(s):

- Easy CD Creator 3.x suite
- Easy CD Creator 4.x suite

This information applies to the following Operating Systems(s):

- Windows NT 4.0

Solution:
All of the related drivers for CD recording should start at the same time during the NT boot sequence. On some systems starting all of the related drivers at "System" will work fine but other systems they will need to start at "Boot."

Open the "Devices" control panel and use the table below to confirm the load sequence of your drivers:

Device Driver Option 1 Option 2 *
ASPI32 Automatic Automatic
CDFS System Boot
CDR4VSD System Boot
CDROM System Boot
CDRPWD System Boot
CDUDF System Boot

* Please Note: If a driver is set to load at "Boot" and NT has a problem loading the driver, then Windows may not be able to boot. Make sure you have a current "Emergency Repair Disk" for your system before changing the load sequence for any drivers. Please see the following Microsoft Tech Net articles for more details about creating and using an "Emergency Repair Disk:"

If you have made changes that have left your system unbootable and you do not have an "Emergency Repair Disk," then you can try the "Last known good" option during the Windows NT boot sequence.

Solution:
Check the cd drivers in the Devices icon on the Control Panel and make sure they are all starting at the same time. If your system runs any proprietary cdrom drivers, disable them and use the generic Windows cdrom driver.
If you have any ide devices on your system, make sure that Busmastering on the ide channel is disabled.

Description:
When starting Easy CD Creator in Windows NT4 or Windows 2000, a blue screen (STOP error) is displayed and the computer has to be restarted. The message in the blue screen may reference a page fault in non paged area. How to I resolve this ?


This information applies to the following Adaptec product(s):

- Easy CD Creator 4.x Suite


This information applies to the following Operating System (S)

- Windows NT 4
- Windows 2000

Solution:

Try starting your computer by choosing VGA mode from the Windows NT / 2000 startup menu. Try opening the Easy CD Creator and if the program opens up without a problem, then most likely there is a conflict with the display adapter drivers used.

Contact your display adapter manufacturer and update to the latest available drivers. If the drivers are accompanied by any utility that constantly runs in the background or the system tray, try to disable that utility. If possible, choose to only install the drivers only, without any of the accompanying utilities. Also, consider lowering your color depth to 16-bit color or lower.

If the same problem occurs in VGA mode, then the issue may be related to some other type of driver / hardware conflict in the system.

No supported CD Recorder is detected in Windows 2000. How can I resolve this? (Article Number 000728-0002)

Description:
Description:
When trying to record in Easy CD Creator, an error is displayed indicating that no CD Recorders are detected in the system. In addition to this, the following statements apply:
- The drive is detected by the operating system and can be used to read CDROM media.
- If opening Easy CD Creator and choosing Tools->CD Drive Properties, other CDROM drives in the system are detected, except for the CDR drive.
- Direct CD does not detect the CDR drive.


This information applies to the following Adaptec product(s):

- Easy CD Creator 4.x Suite


This information applies to the following Operating System (S)

- Windows 2000

Solution:

Early generations of CD Recorders were classified as Type 4 or WORM (Write Once Read Many) devices. This type of devices does not support Plug and Play. More current CD Recorders are built to meet a different specification, sometimes referred to as Type 5 devices. Due to changes in Windows 2000, these Type 4 devices are no longer detected by Easy CD Creator and therefore cannot be used.

This issue only affects these drives in Windows 2000. They should work fine in Windows 95/98 and NT 4.

Windows 2000 blue screens/reboots after installling Easy CD Creator 4.0 (Article Number 000626-0000)

Description:
Windows 2000 is generating a "blue screen" or system reboots by itself after installing Easy CD Creator 4.0 deluxe

This information applies to the following products:

Easy CD Creator Deluxe Easy CD Creator Deluxe 4.x Suite

This information applies to the following Operating System(s):

- Windows 2000
Solution:


If after installing Easy CD Creator in Windows 2000, the system "blue screens" or reboots itself, make sure no antivirus software is enabled at the time. If antivirus is enabled, uninstall the Easy CD Creator and disable the antivirus software (if possible). If you cannot get into Windows 2000 either in normal or safe mode, insert your Windows 2000 recovery CD and proceed to the "repair" section. Once there, you'll need to change directory to:
c:\winnt\system32\drivers
directory and rename cdr4vsd.sys to cdr4vsd.old and reboot the system to normal mode without the Recovery CD present.

If you are able to boot to Windows 2000 in Safe Mode or "last known good" menu, then follow these instructions:
In Windows Explorer, under Tools, Folder Options, make sure "show all files" is checked and uncheck "hide protected system files". Do a search for cdr4vsd.sys and if found, rename to cdr4vsd.old Upon doing this, reboot the system and you should be able to come back in normal mode. The cdr4vsd.sys file is the CD driver for Easy Cd Creator, so once you rename it, you will be unable to use Easy CD Creator, until you uninstall and reinstall it.

STOP error at Windows 2000 boot after Direct CD 3.01 installation (Article Number 000522-0000)

Description:
After installing Direct CD V3.01 including the update floppy included with Easy CD Creator 4.02, Windows 2000 Professional hangs at reboot with a "STOP" error message.



This information applies to the following product(s):

- Direct CD 3.01

This information applies to the following Operating System(s):

- Windows 2000
Solution:
In most cases this has been due to having McAfee antivirus software installed. Adaptec and McAfee are working to resolve this issue. Disable the anti-virus software during Direct CD installation. This was experienced with MacAffee V4.02 & V4.03 antivirus software which is not Windows 2000 compliant.

This has been fixed in the latest version of Easy CD Creator/Direct CD. Please update your software at http://www.adaptec.com/support/advisor/cdrupdates/index.html

CD drives no longer work after uninstalling Easy CD Creator under Windows 2000.. (Article Number 000505-0000)

Description:
After uninstalling Easy CD Creator from my Windows 2000 system I noticed that some Adaptec files were not removed by the uninstaller. I removed these files manually and now my CD ROM, CD recorder, DVD no longer function - even as readers.

How can I regain access to my CD device after removing Easy CD Creator under Windows 2000?

This information applies to the following product(s):

- Easy CD Creator Deluxe 4x Suite - Easy CD Creator 4.02, Standard or Deluxe Editions

This information applies to the following Operating System(s):

- Windows 2000

Solution:
This problem is caused by an association created in the system registry between these specific Adaptec driver files and the CD file system drivers for Windows 2000. If the Adaptec driver files are renamed or removed, then the system will loose access to any CD drive (CD ROM, CD recorder, or DVD).

We have created a file that will restore the original registry values for the Windows 2000 CD file system drivers and thereby restore access to your CD drive(s). Here are the steps to use the file:

  1. Download the file from the following URL:

    http://www.adaptec.com/support/downloads/fix_uninst_ecdc_w2k.reg

  2. Open the directory where you saved the file
  3. Right click on the file and select "Merge" from the pop-up menu
  4. Restart your computer
  5. Verify that you have access to your CD drives as readers with a standard audio or data CD

Please Note: If you have problems downloading the file by clicking on it in your browser window, then right click on the URL above and select "Save Target As..." or "Save Link As..." from the pop-up menu.

When trying to launch Easy CD Creator from desktop or start programs menu, it reports that the CD Writer is already in use by Easy CD Creator.

This applies to the following product(s)

Solution:
This error appears to be NT 4.0 specific. This is generally due to the ASPI32 driver loading after the driver for the CD writer, CDR4VSD.
Go to the Devices in Control Panel, and find the drivers ASPI32 & CDR4VSD, set ASPI32 to start at the same time as cdr4vsd and then reboot your system.
