What is Nero Express?

[DragonNOA1]

I used to have the regular Nero (v5.5 or something) but now my new drive came with Nero Express (v6.3 I think). What is Express and is it better or worse than the regular or Ultra version? Express seems too simplified for me and I liked the previous version with all the options. Any comments are welcome, thanks.

I have Nero 6.3, too, and you can choose between Express and the normal one (if you have the full version)
Yes, Express is simplified and you cannot set all options. In my version there is a button on the bottom of the windows wich says: "Nero" click thatone and you will swith to Nero burnin' rom with all options

Thanks major, but what is Nero Express? Well, since I don't have that little option to turn on the full Nero then I just have a dumped down version of it called "Nero Express" . I wonder if you can do ISO's with it?

Express is basically just a simple wizard-based user interface, the burning engine is them same.

Nero Burning ROM and Nero Express are always bound together, Nero Express cannot be with out Nero Burning ROM.
To unlock Nero Burning ROM you just need another key. Basically all you need to do is to buy a key for Burning ROM online at www.nero.com and then you can unlock the powerful Nero Buring ROM instead of needing to work with the limited Express.
Nero Express can burn from Image files too. . don't know if it can create them, though.

Thanks RJ. From your advice I have a new key and have installed the Burning ROM from the same CD that Express was on. It was a key issue all along, thanks again.
