How to fix the Roxio (Sonic) Easy Creator 9 Drag to Disk error
The usual precautions apply. It worked for me, your mileage may vary.
Before attempting set a new restore point. Step #1 says how.

1. Start/Help, type in 'new restore point', Vista's help system
reponds with several listing, pick the first one which should be
"What is a System Restore". Click in the help window where it says
"click to open system restore". A new window opens. Near the bottom
where it says "To create a restore point" click. This opens another
window under System Properties. Near the bottom of this window
click on the create button and give the Restore Point a name. I
called my Sonic Roxio Fix.

Now in case something goes wrong you're protected and can roll back
your system to how it was before attempting this.

2. Go here: http://docs.roxio.com/patches/d2d3290.exe download.

3. Run the file to install. It will bring up multiple screens. Just
follow the prompts. It will say it is uninstalling. It only
fiddles with the drag to disk applet that shows seperately on
your desktop which is what's causing problems. It won't uninstall
the entire Roxio suite. If you have a OEM version, may do it
somewhat differently. I don't know.

4. Reboot if it doesn't automatically.

You should no longer see any nag warnings from Windows about this
driver. You no longer will see the Roxio Drag to Disc icon on your
desktop. You still have the features it does, but now if you want it
you have to locate it in the menu of the Easy CD 9 application till
they come up with a better fix which is suppose to be in April.

If you have previously disabled the KB update, restore that (optional)
if you have applications that it fixes, that broke the Roxio driver.

Re: How to fix the Roxio (Sonic) Easy Creator 9 Drag to Disk error

This fix appears to work for anyone having a problem with the Sonic
Solutions DLA issue. Unfortunately, when this solution is mentioned on
other sites it appears to be tied into a Dell support issue. This is
mainly the reason I skipped over it in the past. I installed Roxio
Creator 2009 as an upgrade to Roxio 8 (skipping 9). That was another
reason for not finding this solution. I am using Vista Ultimate if
anyone is interested. It updates the CD/DVD driver DRVMCDB.SYS, which is
version 8.10.42a from Sonic Solutions. Vista does not have a clue on how
or where to get this update, which 99% of the problem.
