There was a post about that a few weeks back.


Take a look Here (pressf1.co.nz)

83976 2002-09-28 10:54:00 The beauty with getting a writer with Nero, as opposed to Adaptec Easy CD creator is that it is much better at beating CD protection and cloning back up copies of your software. My came CD creator which is a a good package but is unable to clone copy protected software, even using other tools such as daemon etc. Bill P (1660)
83977 2002-09-28 11:05:00 Pardon my ignorance, but what stops me buying a Sony and downloading Nero from some other source and using it instaed of the program that comes with the Sony. ?:| I assume that Nero updates are available on-line.

PS: I still can't find a 4kus (Liteon) anywhere online in NZ, except for older & slower versions.

83978 2002-09-28 11:26:00 Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I think you will have to pay for Nero if you download it. It's only the updates that are free.

Otherwise there is nothing wrong with doing that.

83979 2002-09-28 11:51:00 Nero would be the best IMHO CD mastering program. It has a 30-day trial. Which could be got around somehow I spose.

The other good program is Clonce CD if you want to create good back-ups of CDs.

NTI is OK I've got that as well. But it seems to die on my when I create a CD as opposed to doing a CD-copy. But no doubt an update would fix that.

83980 2002-09-28 12:36:00 So........

Maybe I could buy a dead CD-RW complete with Nero software and upgrade as required. ?:| Must be a few around by now.

Worth thinking about :|

Cheers

83981 2002-09-28 21:34:00 Buy a dead CD-RW, Billy???

What good is Nero going to be with a dead CD-RW?!! :D

Besides, if the writer is dead they should be giving it away . And I doubt they would be passing on their Nero since they'd probably want to keep it for their next writer, if it doesn't come with Nero .

Billy, you stay up too late! :D

83982 2002-09-29 01:06:00 Oh Dear Susan :(

Why ever would you think I would buy a dud CD-RW.?:| I think you need some of my special meds. :D

Of course I will buy a new CD-RW as well; buying a dead one simply gets me a legal copy of Nero to use and upgrade.

I was thinking on my feet you see, and a dead CD-RW is a means to an end. ]:) I wouldn't mind betting that more than one F1 user has a dead unit sitting at home right now. :)

83983 2002-09-29 01:23:00 Billy,

The 4kus is great. I have been using it overclocked at 48x write since I bought it with absolutely NO errors, on 50c CD-R's from Harvey Norman.

It performs well, reads and writes to all the medis I have thrown at it, and came with Nero. (free upgrade to latest version as well).

You can get one from starlyte computers (www.starlyte.co.nz) in Wellignton for $144 incl. GST, but they are currently out of stock. (40x12x48x)

They are also at William PC (http://www.williampc.com/) in Wellington for $149 (40x12x48x) or $139 (32x12x48x) incl GST.

Or, try qmb Computers (www.qmb.co.nz) in AKLD for $145 plus GST. (40x12x48x)

I'm sure there are others, but those prices are cheaper than the Sony in any case.
