I can burn one cd or dvd then an error message pops up

A scratched cd/dvd can have errors causing the install to fail. Use a clean cd/dvd install disc to fix it.

If you are trying to install directly from the hard drive then a malware infection could have corrupted or damaged that part of your hard drive. Install windows from the cd/dvd disc for your computer.

Have you tried using other software.
Try imgburn and CDBurnerXP, both free and work great for me

uninstalled the hardware to the my computer properties & restart the system go back to my computer properties go to hardware click and click device manager
right click the my computer
click the scan my hardware change
and that's all

Hi,

Please make sure you have enough space available on your disc.Please switch to a new empty disc and let me know if you get the same error.Before trying with a new disc restart your laptop and then burn with the new disc.

Thank you.

You are to clean registry manually now. Nero still has leftovers in there.

two things. Firsly make sure that you are using the correct disks i.e if your drive is dvd-r then only use dvd-r disks, if its dvd+r then only use dvd+r disks if it is a multi drive then it won't matter what disks you use. Secondly don't format the disk first. If it asks you to format the disk click on the X to shut the pop up box. Only put the disk in when dvd maker asks for you to insert a disk.
