For the last few days, when I try to open up my disk defragmenter, it doesn't come up. It seems like this usually happens after I rip or burn a dvd. If I restart my computer it works again, but only until I rip or burn again. But when I try to restart or shutdown my comp a box pops up that says "End Program mmc.exe" and my comp won't shut down but I can't open any apps either because it says it's shutting down even though it won't. Almost like it's just stuck in some kind of limbo. It doesn't matter if I click "End now" or "Cancel" in the mmc.exe box. It still doesn't do anything. The only way to turn it off is to hold the power button until it shuts down. I think this started when my mother board came unplugged last week. Could this have screwed something up?

hello there,na!i dont think that has something to do with it!

is like an incompatibility issue between your win and the prog for burning youre using or that mmc.exe app or your burn in software is damage.

first try to identify that mmc.exe right click start button and select search type mmc.exe to see where is that app located an to what prog it belongs to if it is a program you use or know them leave it.otherwise can be a virus or malware or some app thats causing the prog bug

hope i help

After you burn a DVD, always reboot before you do anything else. Maybe it should not be this way, but obviously, it is, in your case. Go with the flow, and reboot.

It sounds like you are trying to keep your computer optimized, which is good.

mmc.exe is the management console for XP. It it used to open all tpyes of snap-ins. Try this....after you burn a cd/dvd, open admin tools under control panel. Open Computer management. On the left side, you should see the Disk Defragmenter. See if it loads from here. If so, then...ummmmmm.....Dont really know. Also, check for updates for your ripping software. May be some incompatibilites with an update you recently applied to Windows.
