woodtogo -> roxio issues with xp pro (2/8/2008 9:01:24 PM)

I have been trying to install Roxio Easy Creator 6 standard edition, and Roxio Easy Creator 7 standard edition, and Roxio Easy Creator 8 Platium and cannot install any of these on my Pc. I originally had installed Roxio Easy Creator 7 standard edition on my Pc when I first got it. This version came with a dvd burner I had purchased. All worked well, until I decided to change it because it would not run on my resolution of 800x600. It kept changing to a higher resolution which was very hard for me to read because everything was so small. So I have a copy of Roxio Easy Creator 6 standard edition, which is installed on another pc of mine, and thought I would install it on my new pc. Well this is where the fun starts. When I tried to install version 6, my pc would not boot up again. It just keep recycling over and over. The only thing that saved my butt was a product called GO BACK. Which when I used it, my system was returned to normal. So I tried this 3 times, then my nephew gave me a copy of Roxio Easy Creator 8 Platium more than I really wanted but tried to install it and guess what, pc won’t boot again. Tried that twice. Now in total despair I install Nero 6 which I also had from a former cd burner, and no problem installed fine and used it for a couple days, but I get too many errors with it and I really like Roxio better. Seems I can not make a mistake with it and have used it for years. Ok I will reinstall my version 7 standard edition, and live with the resolution problem and use a magnifying glass when I use it. Well it installs, but wipes out all my drives. CD, DVD Rom, DVD all three gone. Not knowing what to do I use my GO BACK and return my hd to a normal state. I now have my dirves, but no burner software. Does anyone know of what is causing the conflict with Roxio on my machine? If there is a program that it does not like, I can remove it, but I really need to know what. I am hoping someone out here has the answer.
