Hi guys
When i first had my pc 4 years ago almost i purchased Roxio CD Creator version 5.1.3 soon after and lately it makes my pc crash whilst copying a cd or copying files onto a CD-R disc in the drive. My Roxio program comes from Freecom Technologies.
Does anyone know why i afew tracks into copying my pc stops with a stop error? Whenever my pc comes back on after restarting it says your computer has recovered from a serious error and the techincal information given for the problem is something like sys data and mini_dmp.
I clicked on the send error support and all it states as a reason for stopping is that a driver caused the problem to occur. I have a pc running Windows XP Home edition
For those PC geniuses out there, do any of you know what may be causing my pc to suddenly crash and if so do you know what can be done to rectify this problem. It has happened 30 times or so now when copying files onto a CD-R disc using Roxio V5.1.3.
Any ideas guys?

some of the soft ware to this driver is missing or corrupt, update the driver and the software will also be up dated, then after you do that, you may consider running a disc defrag, this will free up some space, from programs that you no longer use.
Are you up to XP SP2? Go to Roxio.com and download the updated drivers. You may wish to buy a later version…9 is out now!
You do realize that when you use windows to copy and paste to a blank CD that you are using a later version of Roxio built right into XP?

Roxio was always unstable for me. I think it’s a junk program. Plus, if you have all it’s programs installed, it’s a real C.P.U. hog. If you’re using 50% of your computers memory, or more, it will do that. I use Winamp. It’s free.
If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.

check the disk space on your hard drive you may be runin low cause to copy a disk it writes to the hard drive first then to the cd
update rocxio, update your drivers, and update windows
