Nero CD Burner

[Peter Sharpe]

I have Nero Burning ROM 5.5.2.4 ready installed on my pc, running on Windows ME. Has anyone else found it to be as troublesome and irritating as I do?

It looks as if there are many features which may or may not be useful; it's so difficult to find out. I now take it for granted that it will crash every time I use the burn button on a cd audio compilation. I now make a point of saving every index file, having previously wasted many half hours filling in all those annoying boxes, only to have to repeat it after the inevitable crash. When I re-enter and re-create the compilation with the index file, it will then usually start the burn, but behaves itself better if I use the File menu command rather than the Burn icon. I can absolutely guarantee that the program will crash when I eject the finished cd. It appears to have been released with no structured quality testing whatsoever. Extremely buggy and difficult to use, or is there just some trick that I don't know about?

I have Nero, but it's version 5.5.9.14, and I've just noticed 5.5.10 is available.

 

There is a freely downloadable upgrade, go to http://www.nero.com/en/index.html#download

 

Certainly I've never had any problems with it, though this is under Windows XP Home.

Like spindle says , go the link and update..nero is okay..for mp3 burning I prefer Easy CD Creator 5.1(now updated to 5.3)..I dunno if you are dragging your files from different folders..if u are put all files u are gonna burn into one folder and drag folder down..are ur files all mp3 or maybe WMA files? if WMA files u need a plug in..Try Easy CD Creator I find it best for mp3 work..mind u every one has their fave...best of luck

Good software but I have one little glitch.

Running windows 2000 NT with 3 userers on the pc but only I can burn been messing about for weeks trying the set the other users up to burn.

Any Advice

I've followed Spindle's link, and I'm damned if I can work out which is the relevant upgrade. Most of the links seem to be for unexplained plug-ins (for what?). Does anyone know which one is the right one, and what benefits it will give?

Peter,

 

I did initially have a similar problem, but I unistalled Nero and reinstalled and now have no problem. In fact I wouldn't use anything else now.

I had Nero pre-installed on my PC when I bought it, but have had a new hard drive and can't find the serial number for it to install back on again.

 

Mine is version 5.0

 

Any ideas how I could get it?

Cheers.

[will this name be ok]

getting the serial number is easy but not legal.

As to the problems with nero i had quite a few but it was down to my writer and me hdd speed. once i upgraded my machine it was a whole lot better.

You could always go into Google, and key in Nero +"crack file"

[Howard 13]

I can't find the crack code I need.

 

WTNBOK - you can email me with instructions if you like, as I can't find it.

 

Cheers.
