How to run a program in Compatability Mode

This really isn't a big issue, but from time to time you will need to use a program that pre-exists Vista and needs to be run in compatability mode. Simply browse to the executable or the desktop icon and right click it -> go to Properties. In the new window click on the "compatibility" tab and tick the box beside "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" In the drop down menu choose the OS that the program is intended for.



this is from the first link i posted you will need this info!

 

thanks again if its nero 8 do i run that mode and where do i find the properties, is it on t he short cut or in the folder, sorry for all the questions, is there a link to imgburn on this site,thanks again

 

hi again how do i set burn with imgburn in dvd shrink, i unticked the burn with nero bix, but cant find burn with img burn thaks

 

to autoburn with imgburn and dvd shrink you will need this version of dvd shrink

http://rapidshare.com/files/35280436/Shrink_w_ImgBurn.rar

or you can use the version of dvd shrink you have and "create an image to the HDD" open imgburn find the file and burn manually

edit: you will most likely have to do a clean reinstall of dvd shrink for the imgburn version of shrink to work

 

If you have Nero 8 why don't you try using Recode, it's everything DVD Shrink is and more.

 

Thanks again for the info.just 2 more questions how do i create an image with dvd shrink to hard drive and can you please let me know how to use re code ch i never used it before. Does it back up encrypted dvs or do you need to rip them with a prog to hard drive 1st. Sorry for all the questions thanks again mystice and zoso

 

Hi again if i use fab to rip run thru vts open imgburn .what mode do i put imgburn in to burn the file to dvd. still a bit confused sorry for

Thanks daisy will give it a go i will download shrink with img from link.ill also try recode. I am using verbatim rw plus disc so as not to waste any more discs is that ok

 

ok nero recode only has import dvd .when i add data files where do i go any ideas

 

You don't need Recode. there's nothing to recode. DVD Shrink has done it's job and now all you have to do is burn.

DVD Shrink does not burn!
Simply tell Shrink to save the files to a folder.
When finished, close DVD Shrink.
Open ImgBurn.
Choose the build mode.
Follow this guide:
http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=4632

Set the burning. Don't select max. Go about half of the discs rated burn speed. Somewhere around 8x.

Close some programs running in the background. If you have InCD make sure you shut it down.

Forget about Nero for now.
Read the guides here or the guides that come with Nero before you try using it.

 

ok set dvd shrink to save iso file what di i do now still lost imgburn very complicated why did they not make it easy, the guides are too complicated, it seems img burn is causing the probs, i am not using nero.it used to work automatically with shrink now doesnt,thats the prob.now i cant burn a dvd back up in any way as the progs are too complicated
