Help on UDF reader!!

S

SCPO

Friends,

Recently, I purchased a Sony Dual-layer DVD burner which came with NERO
buring sofware, and an "updated" UDF reader.

Previously, I had Sanyo DVD ROM & a Sanyo CD burner, using Easy CD
Creator. (I kept the CD burner as a 2nd drive.)

My problem is: of about 100 CDR-W's that were burned using the UDF reader
(that is bundled with Easy CD Creator) at least 50% are "unreadable"
using the UDF reader that came with the NERO software. Does anyone know
of a "work-around" for this problem? Is there a program that will recover
info from CDR-W's?

I have called Sony about the problem - they told me to pound sand - that
there wasn't anything they could do. NERO told me they are aware of the
problem, but there's nothing they can do either. I went to COMPUSA, and
the morons had no clue about recovery software.

And, if you are thinking of suggesting I reinstall Easy CD Creator,
forget it! Installing these two programs on the same computer will lock-
up your system tighter than you have ever seen!

There has to be an easier way!!

Thanks for any and all help!

If the two readers are not fully compatible, you have only one choice if you
really need the information off of the CD's. Uninstall Nero - install CD
Creator! Copy what you need to the hard drive. Then uninstall Roxio and
reinstall Nero!

BTW: I have both on my computer without any problem.

If you knew as much as you think you know,
You would realize that you don't know what you thought you knew!

Maybe ISObuster. It has the function of reading Directcd disks.

I installed the UDF reader version 5. Now every time I start the computer the
'Help & Support Center' send a message saying that "there is a driver causing
instability in the system and was de-activated".

I tried to update to version 7

(provided by the 'Help & Support Center')

http://www.roxio.com/en/support/ecdc/software_updatesv4.jhtml#udf
(provided by a Microsoft reference page in Brazil)

However, I was not able to install since the file requires that Easy Creator
to be installed.

For now my question is: How can I remove this driver?
