Nero 6 no longer works.

[Sam Crawford]

I tried to install Nero 6 on RC 2 and it no longer installs.

I downloaded the latest update but still no luck. Any other
recommendations?

Thanks.

I got Nero 6.6.1.4 installed on x86 5744. Sorry, I can't remember if I ran
the installer as Admin or not. StartSmart and Express won't work, but full
Nero Burning ROM will. (UAC on here).

Jane, stupid question but does it make a difference if I install as "Admin"
vs. installing into a user account with "Administrator" rights?

With some programs it does indeed make a difference. Under XP, a lot of
programs expected the user to be running as an administrator, with admin
priveleges. Bad/sloppy programming practice I'm afraid, as the vast
majority of programs should not really need admin rights. It's these
programs that Vista will catch out

Nero 7.5.1.1 LITE. Try as admin or with UAC off if it doesnt go at the
first time.

No luck here. I ran it as "Adninistrator" but it still gives me error
message "Nero Webengine has stopped working". Vista suggests I get the
upgrade from Nero's site. I have 6.6.14.

Oh well. I guess that's why this is RC2 and not Gold yet.

So here I am answering my own post.

I finally got it to install. Previously I turned DEP (Data Execution
Prevention) to "All Programs". When I reset this to default, the program
installed. Go figure.

Glad you found out the reason. One thing though, avoid StartSmart and
Express, they crash. Use the full Nero Burning ROM main program.
