If you are running Roxio under XP, make sure that you get the latest patches from the Roxio site: http://www.roxio.com/en/support/ecdc/ecdc_xpFAQecdcv5p.jhtml

sounds like it may be loading from two different places in the registry?

Uninstall Direct CD. I often read of weird problems with it under XP, but maybe they solved it with the 10th update or so. (?)

also disable XP's built in burning... also made by roxio but I have experienced issues right click on your burner drive in explorer and one of the tabs will have an option to disable windows burning.
