Drive Access Failure

[Master]

Maybe the ecdc package left the roxio driver in the windows/system32/drivers folder.

For the gear driver i have no other solution.

As far as I remember I've never used any Gear software Only Nero, Elby and Padus.

I think cdral2k also comes with the beta versions of Windows Crapola Player 10 (not sure, never used it). It was also a driver for WMP 9, but not anymore, AFAIK.
Powerquest and new Symantec recovery applications use the Gear device driver, and it may also be used by other apps I'm not aware of.
The old Prassi pxhelper comes from various apps, even Winamp 5 professional.

I got WMP v9.0.0.2980 installed but never used it, hmm, Winamp Pro v5.02 too. And I rarely use it too, I like jetAudio Plus - it's my favourite player. Well, maybe it's time to make a new, fresh install, what do you think?

[Master]

If you install the same software again then perhaps you will get the same problems again.
It would be better to know which software will bring the problems to your computer.

[jasmin]

Yep, you're perfectly right, Master. But, if I make a fresh install I'll never install ANYTHING from ECDC package, Winamp 5 too. Winamp v2.8x is enough good (better). And, I'll wait with that, everything else is working perfect, only that no-refresh is driving me crazy

[Master]

Yep, and if something goes wrong then you can use the xp system restore function.

[jasmin]

Oh no, thanks but no thanks. System Restore is nono on my PCs (and friend of mine's). That s**t always betrayed me when I needed its help. Hate it

you can remove the filter entries after a *.reg backup;
just try if it helps;
