I'm getting an error message after restarting my computer:


"This driver is blocked due to compatibility issues"
Driver: Sonic Solutions DLA

Vista can't find a solution online, can it ever?

Which, I think, is my cd/dvd burning software, right? I can burn cd/dvds
just fine, both dvd drives work, how might I get rid of this error message?

I encountered the same problem this weekend after installing Easy
Media Creator 9
Aparrently you should only install it IF the box is marked with the
Windows Vista Logo mine aparrently did not... it was download so I
knew nothing about this.
There is a fix. It took me about an hour to find it.
Go to the Roxio site and go to the discussions group and search the
group for "Sonic Solutions DLA "
There is a post there linking to a Roxio patch file that will remove
the offending driver. The file is about 50MB. Be sure to read all
the information. It is best to run it from the "Run" command line.
Hope this gets you going.

You should have uninstalled before the upgrade. Do it now. DLA is
incompatible and does not work with Vista. It is also completely
unnecessary--all of Sonic is unnecessary. Remove all Sonic entries in Add
remove programs.

Hi there, thank you so much! I am at the Roxio forums but can't find it.
Do you remember the name of the file?

Was there an upgrade? Does Vista upgrad without me knowing it? The
computer is one week out of the box and Sonic was preloaded by Dell. So,
Vista has dvd/cd burning software already? I'll be glad to remove it. Just
reading the Roxio forums doesn't give me much to like about them as a
company.

It appears that I am coming in on the end of a thread, but I have been
battling this monster. I uninstalled it, I eliminated its files and
folders, I eliminated it from the registry. Still, I continue to get the
blocked driver message popping up and refusing to go away. I cancel it, and
it re-appears. The odd thing is that it claims the location of the Sonic
DLA driver is unknown.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

This worked for me,


Cause This error is generated by Windows Update KB929427 which was
distributed to Vista customers on 1.30.2007.

Customers not running Easy Media Creator 9, or other Vista non-compatible
software by Roxio, may experience this issue as well.

Resolution Roxio is currently working on a resolution to this issue. The
error, while annoying, will not effect Easy Media Creator 9's functionality.
However, if you wish to eliminate the error, the only work around at this
time is to temporarily remove the update.

Please read the Microsoft Knowledge Base article The Windows Vista
Application Compatibility Update before continuing. Removing this update may
effect other applications on your computer. If you wish to reinstall the
update at any time, the Microsoft Knowledge Base article offers a link to
re-download it.

Also, be sure that you are running a Vista compatible version of Roxio
software as listed in the article Windows Vista Support for Roxio products.
If you are unsure of what version of the software you have, you can find out
by launching the software and choosing About ... from the Help menu.

To remove the update:


1.. Go to Start -> Control Panel -> Under Programs, click Uninstall a
program.
2.. On the left of the Programs and Features window, click View installed
updates.
3.. After the Installed Updates window loads, scroll down to the Microsoft
Windows payne.
4.. Right-click Update for Microsoft Windows (KB929427) and select
Uninstall.
5.. Rather than restart your system, shut it down completely and then
reboot. The error should be eliminated.

Thank you. It worked, and without any negative consequences that I can
find.
