I have removed Alcohol 120% but I'm not sure how to remove daemon tool. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thanks.
You prolyl dont need to. if you absolutely want to there are a few options:
1. Control Panel --> Add/Remove --> Daemon Tools
2. Start Daemon Tools --> right-click on the icon --> Virtual CD/DVDROM --> Set Number of Devices --> Disabled

Today I'm trying to burning some ISO files using ISO Recorder but realized that my Lite-on no longer works. The burning process aborted with error code: 8004020e.
1. Does it fail the burn i something like Alcohol? (A120 is a much more robust application)
2. Check the ASPI
3. It could be the drive failing (for which, something like a firmware flash might save it)
work.



ASPI, Advanced SCSI Programming Interface, is the source of enough problems with anything even remotely related to an optical drive. Note that Windows2000 and WindowsXP do NOT come with ASPI installed and many users, just starting to do more than basic activities with their drives are encountering problems left and right. ASPI is one of the simplest things to check for -- it just takes one reboot. For more information regarding ASPI see http://cd-rw.org/articles/archive/aspisetup.cfm . IMPORTANT: when checking the version numbers, all four the version numbers have to match identically otherwise the ASPI is not installed correctly/completely regardless of whatever the checker says (this is especially true for Nero's InfoTools which only checks for the presence of the files rather than matching version numbers).
