easy cd creator deluxe(4.0 updated-4.2-4.5) says there are no cdrewriters, on this system, yet have no problem with nero or cdrwin, incidentally, i,m using, a generic, crdbp1300-p writer(mirai) with updated firmware!(1.06), another thing when you open,easy cd it says it is 4.02 when in fact it,s 4.05, any help would be greatly appreciated

I would uninstall/reinstall the software and see if this sorts it.

Nero and EasyCD never liked each other much in the past. Try using a later version of easyCD (v5 platinum is a good one).

Quite right modo.
Even if you install easyCD(v5 platinum) along with Nero 5.9 you will get a problem. If you read the setup instructions on easyCD v5 I believe it will tell you to disable other burning application because it will cause conflicts.

Try Recordnow Max this is an excellent program its available for a 30day trial.

You must run the updates for Easy4 in order. A re-install might be a good idea. Just make sure to follow the update instructions exactly. Also Easy and Nero can co-exist on the same machine provided that they are not running at the same time as somebody said above. A workaround for this would be to run MSCONFIG. If you are not familiar with this, read on.

Start > Run > type MSCONFIG > click OK

tick Selective Startup

go to the Startup tab

un-check all burning related apps

click apply and reboot


This will keep them from loading at startup.
