Hi movyjunky,
You look as though you haven't installed the contents pack - have you?

Please take a screenshot of the contents of the menu folder located here ::
C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDirector\Menus
I want to see what folders are present there please.

Thanks

Dafydd

You can tell that just by looking at her? Jerry Schwartz

Here's my C:\Program Files\CyberLink\PowerDirector\Menus

When I choose "No Menu" it burns a DVD folder on my computer.

When I double-click on the menus, all but the Broadway one can be modified. Weird.

Now i get Error code : e80040154 when using a menu template that came with the program.
I downloaded a menu from DirectZone, used it and had no problems making a DVD folder on my harddrive.

Hi,
I've passed on your issue to CyberLink and I'm waiting a response. In the mean time please carry out the following and in the order stated.
1. Please Uninstall PD9
2. Run a special cleaner (send me your email address please).
3. Install PD9
4. Install the patch to 2330 (link below)
5. apply the contents
Post your results please.

I followed steps 1-5 and get "Burn Unsuccessful Error code: e80040154 Class not registered" when using the templates that come with PD9. The Eventvwr shows no errors.
The Burn to disc is successful when I use a menu template that I download through DirectZone.

When I use a PD9 menu template, the preview doesn't work but I can preview one downloaded from DirectZone such as

All of this problem started when you tried to install a "program addition" designed for PD7.

I fear you've done something in the registry which has disturb PD9, I'm even not sure what that would be.

Now, I'm just guessing here as I haven't come across this problem previously. I can make some suggestion but think you should approach CyberLink's Technical Support.

***********************
Uninstall PD9

Go to the Start menu > bottom left
See the box "search programs and files"
Type in RegEdit
Then go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE >CyberLink
SEE Folders PDRPackage and PowerDirector
Rightclick to highlight these and select Delete.
Reboot your computer.

Reinstall PD9
Go install the Patch 2330

**********************

The above is a suggestion and you carry it out at your own risk. You may decide to consult with Tech Support first and that may be a better option.

The reason the DZ menu's worked, they're sourced/installed to a different location on your PC. They are also not part of PD's structure and are standalone menus. These DZ/custom menus are not removed or affected by your attempt to install the PD7 menus.

Best I can do I'm afraid.

PS, Going into Regedit isn't hard, just you need to follow the information and check yourself before you carry out each action.

OK did the above, noticed error installing SmartSound.

Product: SmartSound Quicktracks Plugin -- Error 1706.No valid source
could be found for product SmartSound Quicktracks Plugin. The
Windows Installer cannot continue.

So in the "Background music:" I selected music from my iTunes directory and DVD burned to my harddrive.
The weird thing is that I choose the Broadway menu and the DVD folder created shows a different picture. See attached screen shot. the background is PD9 menu selected to burn and the foreground shows the DVD file playing showing and image completely different for the menu.
