Win ME - burning with nero 6?

[ztx]

Hey folks,

A friend of mine is using windows me and just recently bought a lite on dvd burner. It reads cds/dvds fine, but it doesn't seem to be able to burn. When trying to burn a cd, the burn option is faded out.

Any suggestions on how to make this work? I'll be going back tomorrow.

Its a pretty old compac (700mhz duron), if that helps any. Since its ME, maybe it doesn't have a driver or something, friend doesn't have a cd or anything with the dvd burner.

I'll try to burn with another program to see maybe its just Nero.

Should I try using one of my cd burners and placing it in the compac and see if I can burn with Nero?

If all fails maybe I'll just try to get them to upgrade to 2000 or xp.

He is probably trying to use a version of Nero that came with a different burner. OEM Nero CD's are locked to the burner they are shipped with. This is why we keep pushing retail boxed burners - most OEM burners no longer ship with software.

Here's a decent freebie:
