Did you install Nero and/or CDRWIN after ECDC? Easy CD Creator does NOT like to play nice with other burning software. I have got it to work with Nero on my machine but it was a headache.! I eventually just left one on my comp.(ECDC)

I got this after I installed an older version of CDRWIN, newer versions works fine and plays nice with Roxio. Just make sure you install Roxio last to be sure. I think it had something to do with the older software not being Burnproof compatible.
