So I had to replace my hard drive and figured I should rebuild the OS on it while I was at it (XP). Now DVDShrink (v3.25) wigs out when I try to load it. The CPU pegs, The entire display will go black and come back, and I haft to reset the pc to stop the wheel spinning. Install runs fine, but DVDShrink will not launch.
Only big difference is I went NTFS instead of Fat32 this time.
Could this be a problem?
I have been using DVDShrink for years, never had a problem like this before.

Thanks for any advise.

Your copy of shrink my be corrupt, uninstall shrink and run a good regcleaner (ccleaner is free). Redownload a fresh copy of shrink and reinstall it, then retry starting to program.

If your trying to use it with a disk inserted that you intend on backing up, you could running/using DVDFab HD (free) and use it to rip the files to the hard drive, then open the video files using shrink and have it complete the backup process.

DVDFab's link is below.

Thanks for the tips.
A fresh download of shrink and a reload of the system drivers fixed the problem.

This is a great forum, I hope to contribute. Thanks.
