SUMMARY

When you try to run Adaptec Easy CD Creator or Adaptec DirectCD on a Microsoft Windows 2000-based computer, the Adaptec program may not run and you may receive Stop error messages on a blue screen. This issue occurs because certain versions of Easy CD Creator and DirectCD are not compatible with Windows 2000. This article describes four methods that you can use to resolve this issue:


  • Rename the Easy CD creator drivers or the DirectCD drivers that are incompatible with Windows 2000 so that they do not start
  • Disable the incompatible drivers in Safe mode
  • Disable the incompatible drivers in Device Manager
  • Disable the incompatible drivers with the disable command
