hmm....

Reminds me I got prompt on my dads system just everytime i'd install uninstall
something etc...roxios "setup" would popup and I narrowed it down to part of the
programs needing a componet installed and no one had put the CD in. It wouldn't
go away! I just uninstalled it and use the nero 6 insted....Its not worth my time or
annoyance....

Solution:
To resolve this issue and repair the DAO component you will need to uninstall Microsoft Office using the Add/Remove programs applet and then reboot and reinstall Microsoft Office.

Best solution ever

Does anyone happen to have a MMC that will work with the AIW 8500dv. I have had my PC AMD Athlon XP 2000+ for the past 3 years

with 2gb of ram and adding hdd's when needed. I am already at 2x40gb and 4x200gb. Not doing the smart thing

and having a back up I redid my box cuz I simply had to many things on it. Now I am shooting myself in the foot because I can't find my orignal CD. If anyone can help me out, even with the simple MMC that doesn't contain the DVD App, that is A-O.k. I really like to use the TV feature so much, and now I can't get anything frlom ATI since they do not support it any more

.

HEEEEELP....!

After a few more driver installations and reinstalling MMC 9.03, I had the DAO problem again with my Roxio products. (See the Sticky in this forum.)

Anyway, this time I could not Uninstall the DAO from the ADD/REMOVE list. It would halt with an error part way through the Uninstall process.

So, this time, I had to go to where MMC 9.03 was installed and double click on the DAO.EXE file. I got a prompt asking if I was sure I wanted to uninstall DAO? I confirmed it and, after a reboot, my ROXIO products are working again without the prompt for DAO.msi.

FYI for anyone reading in the future, Easy Media Creator 8 and MyDVD 8 also have the DAO problem. If you dont want to uninstall ATI's DAO the solution is:

1- Unregister it by typing this at the command line-
regsvr32 /u "c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\dao\dao360.dll"

then.

2- Register it:
regsvr32 "c:\program files\common files\microsoft shared\dao\dao360.dll"

Go to START/RUN then copy and paste the Unregister command in the run box. PRess OK
Do the same with the second command to register.

(i've also made ATI aware of the concern)

Does anyone know, or can confirm, whether this issue has been resolved by ATI/AMD?

If it has, we can unstick this post. I can't confirm as I gave up on MMC quite some time ago and no longer use AIW cards.
