    Windows No Disk Error

    When I try to use dMC to convert I get a Windows No Disk error. It crashes the whole computer. The only way to restart is to power off. I have Release 12.3 (Registered) installed.

    Does it say a drive there is no disc for?

      No - it doesn't. However, could the issue be related to the fact that my Hard Drive is not c:, but h:. Was that a problem with dBpoweramp in the past?

        First time I have heard of it in nearly 10 years, so not common. Which Windows version do you have?

          I have Windows XP Professional. This is installed on my work machine.
          I have the same version of Music Converter installed on my home machine (which has c: hard drive with Windows XP Home) and it never misses a beat.

              Yes. It's one of a number of USB drives - for different types of cards - compact flash etc.

                What happens if you insert a flash card so drive C has a disk in it? does the conversion work then?

                  Aha - yes. It works properly. When I take the card out, I get the Windows No Disk Error crash again.

                      Generally converting from wav to mp3, or mp3 'standard' to mp3 'small'.

                          That's correct.

                            try this (see where some system paths are mapped):

                            select start >> run

                            cmd.exe

                            and type:

                            %appdata%
                            %tmp%
                            %temp%

                            it will show error messages, but I am interested in the paths that are shown.

                              Paths as follows:
                              %appdata% goes to H:\Documents
                              %tmp% goes to H:\Documents~1\Dougs\Locals~1\Temp
                              %temp% goes to H:\Documents~1\Dougs\Locals~1\Temp
