I bought Nero7 Ultra three years ago, uninstalled it after a year and it gathered dust for two years.

 

I decided I would install Nero7 on my current PC--Nero offers the latest Nero7 Update on a DVD for $15. I thought great!! I prefer to install software from an installation disc versus internet download.

 

I received the Nero7 Update disc, tried to install, but kept getting messages that the NeroUpdate.exe was not a valid Win32 application, so I've been trying to resolve that problem.

 

I used several different media ID tools and almost fell off my chair when the burning application to produce the disc was IMGBURN V2.4.1.0 See the attachment.

 

I thought---why is Nero using IMGBURN to produce their Update disc---shouldn't Nero use Nero????

 

Anyway, I thought the OUTSTANDING folks at IMGBurn would be amused. Nero using a free burning application instead of their own product. Maybe IMGBURN should consider this a product endorsement??

 

The irony is that I have not been able to use the Update Disc to install Nero7. The EXE file on the disc has the properties/attributes of a MS-Dos application. Needless to say, I'm waiting for Nero Technical for a response.

 

Just an FYI---ImgBurn Rocks!!!

That's a funny story but are you sure the CD actually came from Ahead/Nero?

 

It looks like some random person just burnt the download onto a disc for you and charged you $15 for it (at least they used decent TYG03 media!).

At the time they produced the compilation, 28 october 2009, they used an year and a half old version of the program.

And the Publisher: n/a

 

Weird :blink:

Yes, the file came from Nero, here's the link

I have the receipt as a PDF file, but it's too large to attach.

 

I'm just PO'd that I can't install the *****-it think's it's a MS-Dos App(see attachment)

 

If anybody can offer some insight. Here's the link to my post at the Official Nero Forum

I couldn't even COPY the disc contents to my hard drive--Got the following error message

 

Cannot copy Legal Disclaimer: Cannot read from the source file or disk

 

Wish me luck--I'm waiting for Nero Technical Support for an answer or my $15 refunded!
