Cyberlink Power2Go 5.5 & 7.0 Trial

[riff99]

New to the Forum...

Sorry if this topic is already available, but entering Cyberlink or Power2Go issue gave me no results.
---
Seems it doesn't matter which version of Power2Go I use, but once I load Daemon-Tool 4.02, Power2Go just hangs at the "initializing engine" load-up for the program(s). Once I take Daemon-Tools off, the Power2Go software works just fine again. Obviously it is the D-T 4.02 that IS the issue after trying two separate versions of the same burner software. Just wish I knew why

Nothing wrong with the burners themselves and the install for Daemon-Tools 4.02 loaded without a hitch. I've always enjoyed Daemon-Tools with pasts versions of Windows, but could part of the problem be that I'm now using Win7 x64 Ultimate.?

This has me really stumped and disappointed. Any help/ideas would be great. TY!

Why are you using such an outdated DAEMON Tools version?

[riff99]

A fair question, seeing that I can't type...

It's hard to get good help when that's the case.

Seems I missed the second "4". Ver 4.40.2 is what I meant.

Will check back today/tomorrow with trial versions of above.

[riff99]

Thanks so much for looking into this for me!

No problem here starting the program with Power2Go 7.0 (CyberLink.100816_7.0.0__T_P2G100804-03.exe) and latest DT Pro on my main pc XP SP3.
Will check tomorrow on VMWare Win 7 x64.

It seems Power2Go has problems when Simple Driver is active (it is crashing then here on XP SP3 and Win 7 x64). Cyberlink should check their program with Simple Driver active.
You may switch to SPTD to resolve the issue meanwhile.

I'm ecstatic you found the problem. I dearly hope it is the same issue I'm having in win7 x64. If it is, I can't thank you enough. I'll see if SPTD works for me.

I hope you don't mind if I drop your Simple Driver revelation on Cyberlink's lap. (I'm kidding in a way...but if it helps others out, I'm going to post it in their forum).

Thanks again.

Tested it, and YES it works along with Power2Go.

Thank you Blazkowicz for the testing to getting Daemon-Tools back on my machine with all happy programs working alongside it.

MUCH appreciated!!

I am encountering the same problem with Power2Go 5.5 and the newest version of DT Lite on Vista. As soon as I install DT, Power2Go stops working. Can you explain to me how to fix this? I am sorry, but I do not understand how to use the solution above. What is SPTD and how do I switch to that?

Also, iTunes is now telling me that it is missing the drivers to import or burn cds and that I should reinstall...

However, everything is fine as soon as I uninstall DT...

[Blazkowicz]

Go into settings -> Emulation -> Advanced Emulation.

The bug is however already fixed in current release version of DT Pro.

[Rollag]

So I just turn on Advanced Emulation and it should fix the issues?
