Just make sure you go to Roxio's, Adaptec's or whoever they are this week's site for instructions on how to completely uninstall it before moving on to Nero.

I can't comment on older version of Nero but the newer one works better than anything else I have used. In fact I haven't burned one bad disc with it.

I used EZ CD Creator for years and really liked it but I could never get it too work correctly with XP. I downloaded the patches, bought new drives, bought new versions, even tried the new oem version that came with my notebook. I have six computers running XP Pro and I never got it to work well on any of them. Even after countless hours on the phone with drive makers, Dell, IBM and Roxio.

Now I have two desktops and a notebook with Nero, I am very happy with the way it works. No tweaking needed. I burn two or three data CDs a day.
