then you should have no prob with Nero! Don't know what else to tell you, unless you have a pirated copy of the program. Nero should work on your system.
Did this version come with a drive, and is that same drive installed in the computer? Sometimes the OEM versions that come with drives will not work unless the drive is installed i.e. if you changed the drive or if you are trying to run someone elses copy.
hmmmmmmm another lesson learned from Arniebear..... I didn't know that! I'll have to remember that if it arises again!
bingoooooooooooo The magic word here is Me thinks you have a problem with the reinstallation of Windows! what was the problem before when you had to cleaned the HD and reinstall Windows? Why did you have to do that?
That has been 6 or 7 months ago. but i cleaned because i had hijackers on it. but my ome that came with my DVD=r was only CD=R but it stil worked after i cleaned my HD
Have you tried taking out all your restore points: First Delete Nero Second Delete your restore points Third Install Nero Fourth Create a new restore point. Thats if your running W XP of Millem Just thought I'd add my 2 cents. Tootall2
Go to the Accessories folder/System Tools/Disk Cleanup choose C and it will compress the old files. Then choose the More Options Tab and on the bottome you will see a box for System Restore. Choose clean up and then okay, it will delete all your old restore points. Just remember you cannot go back any further now then this date in restore.
arnie bear is correct. For a step by step try this: 5/9/2006 12:11 PM Step by Step on How to Turn OFF Restore Points in XP 1. Click Start then programs 2. Accessories 3. system tools 4. System Restore 5. Click return my computer to an earlier time. 6. Click System Restore Settings 7. Click next 8. In the upper left hand corner click "Turn OFF" Restore on all drives 9. Then OK 10. Go back to step #1 when System Restore tells you that systerm restore is OFF click YES 11. UnClick Turn OFF Restore points in all drives, Wait a few, Then click OK 12. RESTART your puter 13. PRAY (LOL)
I had the exact same problem, dont know why it happened, it just freezes the computer. You can work around it by not using the start smart, but just going in via programs & navigating to the burn section you want to use. Otherwise Nero 7 seems to fix the problem.
Thanks everbody for the help I finaly fix nero smart but now i have another problem i have a liteon DVD combo and nero want pickup my DVD recorder but it will pickup my CD-W any sugessing
I have been getting this problem also - StartSmart opens but nothing can be activated from it. It did work in Safe Mode, however, so by a process of elimination, I established that the cause of the problem was software called "SpamMatters Outlook Express Add-in", in particular a running process called ExpressAI.exe. After removing SpamMatters software, Nero startsmart resumed normal operation. ????????????
