Guest R. McCarty Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Re: directcd as a warning message Likely your machine has an older version of Easy CD Creator. The DirectCD is a component of that software that is known to cause issues. If you check Add/Remove programs there should be a Easy CD Creator entry. Instead of Remove you can choose "Change" & once the installer loads specifically remove the DirectCD components from your install.

And potentially for any packet writing stuff, like InCD for Nero, DirectCD for EZCD, etc, etc. I think it's safest to just skip the packet-writing stuff, and only use the DAO (Disk At Once) burn mode, and then chuck the CD and make a new one when its time to "update" it. > If you check Add/Remove programs there should be a Easy > CD Creator entry.
