| | Posted: | | | | Wow! That is very odd behavior. It seems that there's a disconnect between your browser and DVD Profiler during the contribution process resulting in aborted contributions. Not sure how to fix that other than maybe uninstalling MS Internet Exploder and reinstalling. I don't use Exploder myself...Firefox is so much more user friendly. | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

| | Posted: | | | | It's Firefox I'm using but it also happened using Chrome.
I'm as confused as anyone. |

| | Posted: | | | | Geeeze Louise...what a conundrum  . Last ditch solution would be to uninstall DVD Profiler and reinstall...perhaps there's a corrupted .dll or something...or maybe you already tried that...I don't know . | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

| | Posted: | | | | I've done a utilities check and uninstalled/re-installed to no effect.
What's chkdsk? I'm not the most techie of folks. |

| | Posted: | | | | chkdsk is a command used in DOS on Windows systems to check file structure integrity and can fix logical file system errors. On NT-based versions of Windows it can also check the disc surface for errors and bad sectors. | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

| | Posted: | | | | Click "Start". In "Accessories" you'll find "Command Prompt". Right-click on "Command Prompt" and select "Run as Administrator". The Command Prompt window will open. Without the quotes type "cd c:\". Without the quotes type "chkdsk". Without specifying any parameters, it will run in read only mode. This may take a while depending on the size of your HDD. After completion type "exit" without the quotes to close Command Prompt.  | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection | | | | Last edited: by Bad Father |

| | Posted: | | | | Tried both of the above to no avail.  I use AVG for virus protection. Thanks again guys. Going to try a different computer on Tuesday. |

| | Posted: | | | | You can always try rolling back your current version of Firefox to the previous version to see if that helps. I know of one user that had a similar issue with incomplete submission and rolled back his version of Opera to a previous version and that fixed his problem. Worth a try. | | | | My WebGenDVD online Collection |

Perhaps upload an empty database, then upload your current one. Your uploaded database is referenced during submission.

Again, many thanks to all for their ideas and help so far. |
