I have been using Nero Express V 6.0 on my newest computer [operating system Windows 7] for over a year, and suddenly it won't allow me to burn DVDs. Is this a driver problem? ... and if so, how can fix it?

First you need to locate your music/audio. If it was downloaded from Limewire/Frostwire the default location would be C:\Documents and Settings\**Your Username**\Shared

You can also access your music/audio through Limewire/Frostwire, by going to your Library, then highlighting a file that you want to burn and press explore. This will open the folder containing the highlighted file.

Alternatively use the search to search for something you know is in the folder you want to access or eg. search for the extension of the music/audio you want to burn.

----------------------------------------

First it may be worth mentioning that there are two ways of burning audio in Nero 7. Using Nero Express or Nero Burning ROM (The original Nero program). I find both very simple to use, but prefer Nero Express, so That's what I will use here.

First open Nero StartSmart:





Pressing add is not necessary. You can also open folders outside of Nero Express, and then you drag and drop the same way.





You can make mp3 disks using Nero Express as well. Just choose make Data Disk instead of Audio CD in Nero StartSmart. The only difference you will see is that instead of minutes you will be adding size (MB)

In case you run into playback issues when using Nero Express, then you have two options. You could try using Nero Burning ROM. Raaf explains here how to do that with Nero 6, but Nero 7 is very similar:

Burning a (audio) CD from your MP3's (Windows)

Another way is to run a tool called CD/DVD Drive Speed (can be found in Nero StartSmart under Tools, where you let Nero burn test disks for checking the best speed for this type of disk.

Hope this helps and Good luck

Hi,
As much I want you to enjoy your Nero 6 with your newly installed Windows 7, you can't. The reason behind that is Nero 6 is only designed to work up to Windows XP only. So it means it is not compatible with your Windows 7 anymore. My suggestion is you can also upgrade your Nero 6 to the newest version of Nero and that is Nero 10. In that way, you can still use Nero on your Windows 7 machine. Nero 10 gives a lot of new feature that you will enjoy like for example, you can now share HD video to Youtube, and a lot more. You may check this link for more information:http://www.nero.com/enu/nero10-features.html
I hope I answered your question.
Thanks a lot!!

yes nero 6 is not combatable with win 7

The following Nero products are compatible with Windows 7:

Nero Multimedia Suite 10 Platinum HD
Nero Multimedia Suite 10
Nero Kwik Media
Nero Video Premium HD
Nero Vision Xtra
Nero BurningROM
Nero BackItUp & Burn (as of version 1.2.17)
Nero MediaHome 4
Nero BurnExpress
Nero 9 (as of version 9.4.26.0)

Sadly we have to inform you that any Version of Nero prior to Nero 9 will not officially be supported with Windows® 7.

You could try to change the way Nero is launched, but it may not work.

Many older software programs are not compatible with the newer operating systems. Here are a couple of examples: I had Nero 6 burning software on my old XP machine. Upgraded to windows 7 intalled Nero 6. It gave me a message that said it has known compatibility issues with windows 7 so I had to go get Nero 9. Another issue I had was with my printer. It was made back in 04 had the original software went to intall and in the middle of intalling it told me that it was not compatible with this operating system. i went to HPs website and got software that was made for windows 7. Good luck...

Nero Express 7 is not supported under vista or windows 7.

General system requirements

• Microsoft ® Windows 98/98SE; Windows 2000 (service pack 4 or later); Windows XP; Windows 2003 server
• Microsoft® Windows XP Professional x64 Edition (All applications beside InCD and Nero ImageDrive work in the x86 emulator that allows 32-bit Windows applications to run)
• Microsoft® Windows Internet Explorer 4.0 or later
• LightScribe support is only available for Windows 2000 (Service Pack 4 or later) and Windows XP or Windows MCE 2004 or greater operating systems

Current version is 10. There are a lot of driver differences between XP & Vista. I'd buy the new version. You could try compatibility mode but I suspect it won't work.

Hi there,

There are 2 ways of burning a CD.

1) From Windows operating system
2) From a CD burning software like Nero

Solution

If you are using Windows to write a CD follow the proceedure:

1, Select all files you want to write on cd
2, Right click on files and click on send/copy them to writable CD
3, now brows CD from my computer
4, click on menu>write files on ZCD
that's it

If you are using Nero
1, Start nero express
2, Select Data CD from menu
3, Now on the opened pane click on "Add"
4, After adding the selected files click on "Burn"

That's it

Regards
