nero is causing burning problems... please help
 

my nero it doing this odd thing these days....

i would make my songlist and start the burning process and it would finish. but it doesn't finish, it starts to re-burn the songs again? like what is it up to? and when i take the cd out, nothing had been burned to the cd

i took my comp into the shop and they said the burner was working, so is nero just fucked up? what can i do to fix this

thanks in advance :thumbsup:

nobody has an idea?

this problem is really pissing me off, i just don't see why it just can't work the right way.....

try burning the file first as an image, then burn the image.

it's worth a shot.

do you have any other burning software you could test with? if you are using XP, just try writing some files to a cd in explorer

i hate nero :(

Make sure you aren't somehow running a simulation the first time.

You sure it's not writing to your CD burner?
menu item: Recorder/Choose Recorder

Sounds like you have Simulation turned on....the first pass through does not burn the disk, but the second pass does, when you create your burn project check the Burn tab and make sure that only Write and Finalize are checked.

good luck.

i 2nd what mr gigawatz said

IF all else fails, delete and reload Nero

Nero 6 is out btw.

i installed it yesterday.

:D

so maybe uninstall/reinstall the new version? ;)

No, no, NO! The proper solution to *any* Windows problem is to format the harddrive and re-install the OS.

Hell, just ask my ISP's helpdesk... ;)

LoL
complete overhaul of the system sure does take care of it all huh?
tech support ppl seem to love giving out that advice

you have simulation turned on. nero will simulate the burn, and then do the real burn. if you take the cd out befare the real burn you will have an unwritten cd...

ya simulation was turned on but the cd stills fails burning, it says burning has failed at so and so speed

Noooo...the proper solution is to reboot 18 times (this is best suggested 10mins before the Helpdesk closes) and see if the problem goes away...call back if that doesn't work! :D
