Live 6.1 Launching Problem

Post by zippop » Wed Dec 20, 2006 5:59 am

Hi All,

Every time I launch Live6 in WindowsXP it shows an error message:

"There is no disk in the drive. please insert a disk into drive ." with
Three boxes, CANCEL, TRY AGAIN, CONTINUE.


The box will only disappear after clicking one or more 8 to 10 times.

Has anyone else had this problem?

I've tried everything I know to fix with no luck.

Thanks for any help,
Zippop

Thanks for the suggestion but that didn't work either.

I have uninstalled all versions of Live, cleaned the registry, deleted all folders and sub folders associated with Live, did a complete maintenance check on my computer of which I have never had any major issues, shut it down, counted backwards from 100, downloaded, installed and activated the latest Live 6 version, and I still have this annoying problem!

By the way it's ten times count em' ten times I have to click the cancel button before the program will launch. Not seven, not eight or nine, not even eleven or twelve, but ten times exactly ten times.........

I think I better take a break.
