updates are hanging my system

I have never had any trouble with Anydvd and Clonedvd untill the last download. And i have not added anything or took any thing of my computer. After downloading both downloads of anydvd and clonedvd my computer would hang up and as i would try to use clonedvd it would hang up and i would have to restart my computer every time i tryed to use clonedvd. To get any thing to work i had to restore my computer to the date befor i added the 2 downloads. Now every thing is working great

To me it looks like there has to be something wrong with the new Clonedvd but i am new at all this.

 

I and others have not had a problem with the new versions. It seems more likely that those that are having problems are having some sort of software conflict that wasn't happening before. Those of us without that software are not having problems. All those having problems need to check their Upper and Lower filters and see if there is something on the list that may be causing a problem. It may be something that wasn't a conflict before, now is. Although since PotC 1 or 2 did work before and don't now, something is different although just with Shrink and Recode.

 

Thank you for the reply mmdavis, I dont have shrink or any other kind of Dvd soft wear on my computer but Nero and i have never used it. AnyDvd and CloneDVD have never let me down untill the last new down load. So ill do as you say i go to the upper and lower filters and paste it here but how i do check the upper and lower Filters. I know i have seen it here posted some where be for. Thanks Fivestones

 

There isn't. And wolfstew has a several programs on his system that he shouldn't.

Follow these steps please.

drvmcdb - Used by Sonic and Veritas. Yet unknown in which software it is used (possibly backup software).

sscdbhk5 - A Shared Driver Component used by Veritas and Sonic Solutions. Yet unknown which program it belongs to.


I'm not aware of any specific issues with any of those three entries I quoted, and the others I didn't quote were all installed by Slysoft programs.

That said, you could try uninstalling the software that installed the three filters I quoted to see if there's an improvement. After uninstalling check to ensure the entries I quoted in this post no longer appear in your filters. I am doubtful doing this would help (but it might).

Otherwise, I recommend you follow each step closely (including running ccleaner) in order (especially step 1 and 3. retest after doing step 1).
