DVDFab never opens a GUI

[vtTitan]

Did you have any luck?

Raisin,

Did you ever have any luck getting DVDfab to work again? I seem to be having a similar problem. Program is running in my application list, but GUI never appears.

[Raisin]

Thanks for your help, BTW! I really appreciate it!

Uninstalling DVD drive and p-c driver and reinstalling DVDFab didn't fix the problem, unfortunately...

Bummer! Well, I was hopeful, but not expectant.
I'm running a very similar rig...with Win7 Pro, 64-bit and also have CDBurner XP installed without any issues at all....I doubt seriously that this is the culprit.

When I get a chance, I'll roll up my sleeves on this one and try to devote what gray matter I have left.
Unfortunately, this is my weekend of penance and I'm doing long shifts all weekend , including Monday.
I'll pop in when I'm able if I've got any bright ideas.

BTW, where's signals?...he loves a good mystery...hehehe

Hi Raisin,
Stuck at work here and just scanned your thread.

Have you tried simply uninstalling your burner in device manager?
Reboot and windows will reinstall and assign the appropriate drivers
Sorry if I missed this and you already did it.

If no go, you might try uninstalling all instances of patin-couffin driver.
Look in device manager, scroll to the bottom to VSO, click + to expand and
uninstall all instances of p-c driver.
No software uses p-c anymore anyway...VSO was the only one that did and now VSO uses SPTI for access layers.

You can always reinstall p-c with Fab if you want.
Recommend on the next install, untick VSO during installation.

Updating Nvidia drivers to the latest available had no effect...

[Raisin]

Yes, indeed, it's pretty bizzare. I have a GTX280 that I will try updating drivers for. Strange though, I haven't updated them recently and everything worked fine before.

Is there a way CDBurner XP could have messed with some essential windows file without fixing them after uninstall? Could I be missing some dll Windows files even if I receive no error message?

You have an unusual set of problems, raisin. If you have an nvidia chipset on your video card, try updating the driver. I have been told by the staff that they are working on some of the crash problems that seem to only effect a few users.

[Raisin]

I try to select the filter and click the remove selected filter button but it remains even after I click refresh!?

edit: Nevermind, running IMGBurn in administrator mode fixed the issue

2nd edit: DVDFab problem remains after removing ALL filters

[signals]

Have you tried deleting the device filters, especially Sonic? You may have to reinstall it to make it work again, proceed with that in mind.

I have uninstalled DVDFab and ran CCleaner registry. I have reinstalled DVDFab as admin and the problem persists

I use MSE and it does not interfere with DVDFab. Use the uninstaller for DVDFab and then run CCleaner registry to remove the left files for DVDFab and then reinstall DVDFab latest release as Administrator to do that save the installer to computer and once done downloading right click the installer and select install as administrator. If same problem post back

[Raisin]

Thank you very much for the information. I have tried to uninstall the anti-virus (MSE) and it hasn't fixed the problem and neither does trying to run the program in safe mode.

To everyone in China, happy holiday!

Should I contact support. Would they be able to help?

Before doing that you may want to check to see if your Anti-virus is causing this problem. Also it a holiday in China right now and not over till Friday so you may not get a reply till the weekend. Also some of the DVDFab Developers read the posts on the forum and help as well but they are on a week long holiday at moment so are not available till Friday
