emstexasusa Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 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!!! Nero7DiscInfo.bmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 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!).

ianymaty Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emstexasusa Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 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!). Yes, the file came from Nero, here's the link http://www.nero.com/enu/downloads-nero7-update.php 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 http://forum.my.nero.com/index.php?showtopic=4300 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!
