Roxio Easy Media Creator 8 Installation ReadMe File - March 2006 Note: In addition to the known issues contained in this document, you can access current product support information on the Roxio Web site at http://support.roxio.com. Contents: After installing Easy Media Creator 8, you may be unable to read CDs or DVDs This issue appears to be caused by a conflict between a Roxio feature called RXFilter and certain anti-virus software. If you have this issue, you can correct it by disabling RXFilter. RXFilter lets you access data on compressed or encrypted disc sets directly from Windows Explorer instead of having to use Roxio Retrieve. After disabling RXFilter, you will need to use Roxio Retrieve instead to read compressed or encrypted data discs created in Creator Classic.
After either of these utilities is run, you must restart your computer for the changes to take effect. Incorrect system date setting causes "invalid CD Key" message during installation If the date on your computer is set earlier than the actual date, the installation program will report that the CD Key you entered during installation is invalid and will not allow you to install the program. To proceed, correct your system date by double-clicking on the clock in your Windows taskbar and then try the installation again.
