Everytime I start ObjectDock or Objec Dock Plus, a Stop sign comes up saying:

"ObjectDock.exe - No Disk
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive\device\harddisk2\DR5."

After I click cancel about 5-10 times it will load. But everytime it starts up I have to do this. I have it installed in my main hard drive (H Drive). Could that be the problem? It is not a C drive. I don't have a C drive. How do I fix this? Please help.

Do you have any diskmeter docklets or other icons that could be referring to non-existant disks? Sounds like they need to be reconfigured.

I have OD installed on drive D with no problems so I don't think it's that.

Thanks for the reply.
Nothing is installed. Just the initial program. I installed it and the errors just pops up...
I tried removing all the docklets, still the problems persist.
I even tried uninstalling and deleting the old files. Reinstalled it and it still has the errors.
Any other suggestions?

The fact that you don't have a C drive may be responsible. I would suggest you email support@stardock.com with your problem. Make sure you mention that you don't have a physical drive C.

I agree with Lantecs opinion. I think what happens is that OD tries to find your Windows on drive C (where 99.9999999 percent of people would have it). Reason: it looks for the information for your systemtray or taskbar (I believe the default theme starts up with a taskbar thingy)

1) do what Lantec says

2) try to create a dock without either sys-tray of taskbar, does the error still occur?

OTOH, windows creates an environment variable called %SystemRoot% which points to the windows installation dir i.e usually C:\WINDOWS for XP, so unless OD doesn't use this environment variable then all should be well.

For example there's all the SDMCP stuff in C:\Program Files\Common\Stardock on my system, where would that go if you installed windows elsewhere than C:\ ?
