Hi,
I have a little probleem, when I want to burn, copy, ect..
U get an error that my CD-R burner is already in use bij some other software???

I have no idee what is can be :S

OS: XP
 
I'd make a bet he has Roxio Drag n Drop or DirectCD running in the Background....that will happen..so its best to manually start and stop DirectCD by removing it from the startup in the Registry and making a shortcut to it on the start menu and just run it when you need it.
 
Nero 6 does have this problem- without ANYTHING alse running.
The solution is pretty obvious: using a serious mastering/burning application, and it seems that the last "quasi-serious" Nero version is ver. 5.5.10 build 42.

wel, voor me it does not matter wat software I use, aslong as I can burn! :D so even is it is nero 5 its al ok for me :)

so ill download 5 then :) thx 2 all
 
Agree; Nero 6 is still buggy. Maybe 6.1.0 will be stable, but for now I have used all iterations of 6 up till 6.0.15, and have too many problems. Went back to 5.5.10.50 enterprise until the dust settles. Burnatonce for iso burning, Nero for Video.

I can overburn on my Yamaha F1 just fine with .50 .. what bug are you talking about? Set overburn in the Preferences, Expert Features to 83 minutes. Works for me.

Then you are a lucky one....it´s a no go for a lot of people

btw..i know the expert feature settings...99 min for my plexwriter premium and my liteon 48126s@48248 and still a no go

The problem is posted at the cdfreaks forum too but i won´t give the links to the cdfreaks forum here..i am still loyal to this forum ;)


Taken from the Ahead NERO Burning faq´s :

5. Nero Reports: "Not Enough Space To Make Copy". Why?

One possible solution is:
Under Windows 2000/XP, please uninstall Nero from your system using the Control Panels Add/Remove Program feature, and then delete the Ahead folder from the C:\Program Files directory.
Remove all traces of Nero (and Ahead) from Program Files and Winnt directories.

And remove traces of Nero in "Setupadi.log" and "apcompact.inf" and edit these out. Reboot and Reinstall Nero and it should now work.
still a no go here :mad:
