    Depends - you may have more apps in Nero with Essentials then you do in the oem suite so you might be better off with Essentials.

    Nero 7 has a few more bells and whistles then Nero 6 - like Vision has animated menus, you can access different tools now within some of the apps of Nero like erase disc & disc info. You can set the option to show the 'true' burn speed etc.

    I use both 6 & 7 - the latest version of each and each is good.
    Give Essentials a go and see if you like it - you can always go back to Nero 6.

    Not a problem redice :)

    Forgot to add b/4 - if you give Essentials a go do a clean install - uninstall 6 - run the clean tool.
    Then I'd reboot - run a registry cleaner like the free ccleaner (use the issues & cleaner options).
    Download the latest version of 7 - 7.8.5.0.
    When you get to the serial # part of the install input your serial # from Essentials.

    Any problems just let us know.

    Yep it will be.
    Some install discs have the serial # right on the paper sleeve.
    That's a + cause then you can just download the latest version and plug in the serial instead of installing from the cd and updating if not the latest.

    edit: hit reply to fast :)

    That's a good question - I use the full version of 7 and it does.
    The oem versions don't have this option though.

    I'm not 100% sure on what apps Nero Essential includes - you can help me with that :)

    In burning rom under the burn tab is the option 'use multiple recorders' listed?

    Welcome to aD
    To get the help you need start a new thread for your problem - (hint: forum rules) plus way off topic on this.
    The error can be caused by a few things so post the Nero log too and we can try & sort it out for you.

    nero 7 essentials only has the following programs:
    Nero Home (Essentials SE)
    - Nero Scout Nero Start Smart 3 (Essentials)
    - Nero Express 7 (Essentials)
    - Nero Vision 4 (Essentials SE)
    - Nero ShowTime 2 (Essentials)
    - Nero Media Home (Essentials)
    - InCD 5 (Essentials)
    - Nero PhotShow Express 4 Nero PhotoSnap (Essentials SE)
    - Nero PhotoSnap Viewer (Essentials)
    - Nero Cover Designer 2(Essentials)
    - Nero ToolKit

    so with that being said i would need the full version with the burning rom but i do not have that one i only have nero 6 the full version.

    can i install that version of nero along with nero 7 Essentials so i can use more than one burner with nero?

    Man I hate to talk bad about Nero by geez imho these aren't 'essentials'
    Burning Rom is like their core program - not included but they add home & scout. No recode either!

    If you use Shrink you need burning rom installed to do the autoburn thing. Express won't cut it.

    So redice - bad advice on my part on Essentials. I now know better though :)
    You better off using the full version of 6 to get what you want.
    Only 1 version can be installed on the pc at one time.

    That makes it a little better than :)

    It's almost a full version just missing a few apps like burning rom, sound trax, wave editor and probably 1 or 2 more that I'm forgetting.

    yeah almost better but only if they would have allowed the use of more than one burner.
