Any problems with compatability with Windows XP and Easy CD Creator 5.0 Platinum?? I just got done installing XP but have not installed ECD 5.0 yet.

Since my very bad experience with Easy:rCreator 4 (had to format immediatly after install, don't remember why), a decided to give 5.0 a try. Well, I burned the CD literally after I had no more CDROMs in Explorer. Yes, they just dissapeared from "My Computer" in Windows. Tried everything, couldn't get them back. Now I only use 3 progs: CloneCD, PlexTools copier and WinOnCD 3.7. My advice: don't buy this software until you COMPLETELY tested everything, even uninstall.

people who are smart enough to run windows 2000 will be smart enough to know that Easy cd-creator sucks big time...

I only still use easy cd 3.5c and for the rest i use cdrwin 3.8 and nero 4.0.7.5 thats all i need I installed easy cd 4 and had to reinstalled my windows too then.. easy cd is only good if you just start with burning or use it for `normal` back ups for the rest the prg sucks!!

I have to agree that Easy CD does have a shit installation and uninstallation procedure. You need the CD to uninstall as well !! But the thing is the interface is better than Nero - (Files don't refresh properly). As with WinOnCD it always makes a temporary image before burning (crap).

READ THIS FOLKS! For quite some time now, ive been using Adaptec's Easy CD Creator. Actually i started using it in like what.. 1996 or so. when burners were VERY VERY expensive and burning tools were very hard to come by. Well ever since then, i have been burning VideoCD's (with the deluxe pack) , etc. this program quick became my favourite program to use, simply because it worked, and wasnt that hard to use, as others at that time were. Recently i got Windows 2000 Prof. which fucking rocks , and ofcourse i installed Roxio (?!?) Easy CD Creator 5 Platinum - simply because that is what i always do.. get the latest version from easy cd ,and run it. THIS I SHOULD NEVER HAVE DONE!! Easy CD 5 sucks my fucking balls !! As soon as it was installed - i ran it, quite impressive graphics at the start of the program! actually it looked alot like my windows 2000 startup screen! .. hmmm! i thought,, then i found out that it WAS my Windows2k bootscreen, why ??? because Easy CD conflicts with something or somewhat inside my computer. NOW! i uninstalled the shit, and turned on my computer again. STILL fucked!! now the computer told me i had missing dll files, and that i couldnt start win2k. i had to install it all again!! DAMN SHIT! Well, so i did, installed it all again and installed NERO 5.5 (even tho some lamers in here still thinks its news!!) - and i must admit, never have i seen a better burning tool. No more buffer underrun caused by the burning program .. ofcourse its still possible to get it, unless you have a burnproof cd writer (HAIL PLEXTOR!! hehe) but now atleast , i KNOW its my cd writer or the medium if the write fucks up. So all in all folks D O N O T B U Y E A S Y C D !!!!! get Nero. even a hardcore Adaptec fanatic like myself have been convinced. Nero rules, and Easy CD sucks big long fat pole. Your Testperson MDD :7

You all put down a product, just cause you all had some problems. ever think it could be User Error!!! all my cd recording software i have installed have no conflicts and my Plextor Loves them all. Peace
