Having 'fun' with Adaptec Easy CD Creator 4.05, which was bundled with my PCV-LX1.
I have moved into the coaster production business with a vengeance since this software decided not to 'close' sessions after copying files. The read, write and copy processes run as normal until the session should 'close'. Then the software (not the machine) hangs at 99%, forever. The resulting CD-Rs show zero space and zero data.
Since the software doesn't work, I attempted to uninstall it, only to find that Installshield cannot locate the installation file (ecdc.ins). As only a madman would load new CD burning sotware over old, my new Nero package sits unused while I attempt to work out how to get ECDC off my machine.
This is not helped by Vaiolink Support, who flatly deny that Sony ever supplied Easy CD in the first place, in spite of the fact that (a) I didn't install it, and (b) it is detailed profusely in page 11 of the pdf file which came on my PC, known as 'About the software on your Vaio desktop'. This does not inspire confidence.
Of course, my drive might be faulty (although various utilities report it be running normally).
Any thoughts ?[size=18]
