Yshortcut.exe When I try to open Intervideo Windvd, I get a message saying the computer is searching for yshortcut.exe, and that's all. ????

Try downloading the latest version:

and try your activation-key. It might work.

Maybe your CD/DVD drive is a old drive :O( , for the new cd´s/DVD´s on the marked today actually many times you need a new drive for read them. Try first if you can install with the dll found on the link below.

You can find "wnaspi32.dll'' here : http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?wnaspi32

Ohter solutions:
1: get a external drive(not to old) and try install it with that
2: copy the cd to a usb storage on a computer thats have a new cd/dvd drive, use the usb storage to install it on your computer, use the dll file from the link.
Hope this can resolve the problem.

Use windows media player, if WinDVD won't work, or download VLC media player.

I hope this helps!

you have to put the sd card that came with the unit into the unit. the card has the navi software on it.

if you formatted it with a recovery disk try inserting dist again while running windows as a administrator and try reinstalling the program. otherwise you have to pay the $80 for the new InterVideo WinDVD 9. ($40 for basic player)

Thanks,

Your antivirus is detecting the gpiproxy.dll as a "hacktool" or "virus". I suggest that you either uninstall or disable your AV when you reinstall WinDVD. I use Landesk AV and I finally figured out that the AV was not allowing the dll file to register or it was deleting it. So I uninstall Landesk, installed WinDVD and it worked fine. Afterwards I reinstalled Landesk and it still played the DVD fine.

try playing the dvd in windows media player, if it plays in that programme, then the intervideo programme is faulty.
