Nero

[axxxo]

Im trying to install nero 7 instead of nero 8, it keeps saying i have a newer version of nero on the system and to uninstall the newer version first

ive already done this but still get the message appearing

appears i still have some folders lying around on the system that i cant delete even in admin or safe mode

any ideas please?

thanks 7th, all went well til i opened nero vision, now i get this

Unable to initialize the Nero API. Unspecified error

i believe i have to use the clean tool yet again and try a reinstall again afetr another restart?

 

[hadmad]

use unlocker to make sure all folders are gone thats the same er i get with win 7 have not heard back from nero yet

API = Application Programming Interface

Normally the error you're receiving is due to a corrupt installation.

You may need to uninstall again, run the clean tool, Ccleaner, defrag, then give it another go. Perhaps someone has a better suggestion, but this has been from what playing around i've done with Nero.

One could always just install Imgburn. ;)

thanks hadmad, ran that unlocker to do a couple of files

can i do avi's with imgburn?

You will need to run Nero "Clean Tool" to remove all traces of the product before installing a different version.

ran that twice Gman, ill see how it goes this time, have a funny feeling somethings missing though as the good ole reliable dvd flick wouldnt work for me either

 

[hadmad]

[axxxo]

Alas!!! Success!!!

Im a genius!...er..eh.. i mean thanks for all your help guys!!! lol

 

[hadmad]

well done mate

If you simply want to burn the AVI to a disc and keep it as an AVI, yes ImgBurn can do that. Just use Build mode and burn it as you would do any other file.

Or you can convert to dvd compliance with AVStoDVD or DVDFlick then burn.

Glad you got it sorted though.
