Dell Backup and Recovery Manager (DBRM) "drive in use" error when inserting second DVD-R during full system backup


PROBLEM:  User is trying to create backup with Dell Backup and Recovery Manager (DBRM) and when he puts in the second disk receives a message that "another application is using the drive"

RESOLUTION: Technician Dell connected to system, checked running tasks and ended task on the PowerDVD task that was running.  (Other tasks that may interfere are Roxio, Sonic, Nero or other DVD player/Burning Software.

After ending task on PowerDVD, then backup was successfully created.

I’ve personally seen this on a Vostro Desktop with XP and now on a Latitude E6400 with Windows 7
