Hey, I've had so many problems with a new vista 64 machine and have gotten most ironed out, but one of my favorite apps is DVDfab platinum and I can't get it to work. The program runs well, and rediculously fast, and goes all the way to where it actually says the disc was created successfully and then a windows errors message comes up saying it was stopped. It has a bubble in the taskbar that says DEP shut it down and to click for more options. First I tried adding it as an exception in the DEP options but that did nothing. Then I looked up how to disable DEP and found the command line code "bcdedit.exe/set {current} nx AlwaysOff" which seems to work and the DEP menu is grayed out. But when I try to use DVDfab the same thing happens. How can it tell me DEP shut down the program if I disabled it? I've tried the typical update windows, run as administrator, turn off UAC, and run in xp compatibility and nothing works. Any ideas? Ugh, vista is so annoying.
I would try and install DVD Fab again. I have two machines running Vista 64 and both use DVD Fab regularly with no problem. It might be a error in your registry too..someone correct me if I'm wrong.
I just got a Vista 64 machine and when I tried to install DVDFab it also installed VSO and locked up my machine. Kept telling me I needed drivers for VSO. I went to their website and installed the program and it still would not work. Would not boot after installing. I think it was VSO that caused the problem. Did VSO install on your machine?

Sorry to bring up an old topic, but I am having the exact same problem as the orginal poster. As soon as DVD Fab begins to burn to a blank DVD, Vista says that DEP has closed DVD Fab. I have already disabled DEP via command prompt. I'm running 64 bit vista and DVD version 6.0.2.2 on an HP Laptop. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
TravDude, I did finally get it to work but don't know if my solution will help you. What I found was that the app was set to use the default VSO burning engine and that was what was failing. I installed imgburn and Nero and tried the settings to use each of those and they both worked. It's under common settings - DVD/BluRay - Write - Burning Engine. I forget what combination of turning off DEP, UAC, Run as administrator I used when working it all out. But after I did get it all working I turned those back on and it still works fine, it was all in that VSO burning engine. Hope that helps and if it doesn't then I really don't know.
That might be why I've never had a problem. One of the first things I install on a new system is ImgBurn, probably sets itself as default and DvdFab just doesn't override it.
Actually, that leads me to another problem that I am having. I still play an older video game (NASCAR Racing 2003) and DEP automatically shuts down the game. However, I can't add NR2003 to the DEP exception list, it states "this program must be run with DEP enabled". So I have to keep turning DEP Off and On, or sometimes just leave it Off. Anyone know of a solution to force a program onto that exception list?
