Nero 7 upgrade problem

This is by way of a 'heads up' really.

I originally had problems when I upgraded from Nero6 to Nero7, but after a complete clearout got it working, eventually.

Yesterday I decided to install the 7.0.8.2 version over the existing 7.0.5.4 - and I wish I hadn't bothered.

I may have got a corrupted download, i suppose, but on rebooting after an apparently successful installation, I received several 'damaged installation' messages, that prevented running any Nero services.

I did a full uninstall, using the Nero 'cleaner' program, as well, to be sure - but reinstalling gave the same issues.

For now, I have gone back to the 7.0.5.4 version, with no problems.

As I say, it may be a corrupt download (and at over 100Meg I'm not too fussed trying again, at this point ), but I thought I'd post this, so anyone else having the same issue will know it isn't just them.

How is Nero 7+ working out for you ?

Alot of people and myself in another forum are reporting the same problem. Burning audio cd's is causing random tracks to start skipping. Data and Video discs are fine. We have all since gone back to Nero 6 Ultra.

I haven't tried audio CDs, yet, so i don't really know, sorry.

It was installation that caused me the most grief, even at one point telling me I was trying to install over a newer version ...

DVDs seem to have written, ok, both as 'proper' mpeg2 & also divx coded avi files & packet writing to DVD-RW seems ok, too.

Even with Nero 6 I used to have problems when new versions came out, InCD wouldn't work, at one point, for example. I imagine they will smooth it all out eventually

fyi the nero cleaner program is useless, doesn't delete the program files folder or even the reg entries, easy enough to do it manually.

the audiocd problem in nero 7 was caused by a dodgy file, it should have been fixed in the latest versions.
