Smartripper = one-touch restart

Mr Pilkington · Post by **Mr Pilkington** » Fri Oct 10, 2003 2:04 pm

So I forced myself to wakeup this morning at the crack of noon, just so I could rip my last Hellsing DVD and finish my latest video. But to my surprise some how throughout the course of the night Smartripper has become a one-touch restart button. WTF? Now WinDVD platinum works just fine, but ATI DVDplayer does the same thing, instant restart. As does my NTI CD burning program, Nero (6) on the other hand seems unphased.

This is the damnedest problem. Could it be lack of ASPI?

if you run win xp and know what your doing you can hit ctrl alt del and check for bug processes and stop them. i had a bug program re-map my keyboard a while back so i know what an ass pain they can be
*screams at computer"f key does NOT mean open search window!!"*

I wish it were that easy... No I do not have anything else running that would cause said problem.

But i guess that info would help:
OS: Win 2000 pro

this may not help much and it is sorta noobish but have u tried uninstalling smartripper and reinstalling it. or maybe defrag your hd or run clean sweep. also scan for virises. thats all i can think of sorry

hmm no it wouln't be a progrm it would be a process try shuting down all of the non critical ones
also it maybe a missing file
i've had that happen to me before

Nah reload didn't fix
And my HHD isn't even %33 Fragmented so it had better not be that
As for viruses, unless they can spontaneously generate from commonly used files I doubt that's it. No online service.

Hmm, I sometimes get random MacroVision faults (no idea why, either, theres no consistency to them) and it causes my entire system to lock up. Maybe you have too many DVD ripping/playing programs/drivers installed and they're fighting it out every time you try to access something via SmartRipper. Other than that, I have no idea.
