| 630211 | 2008-01-14 10:48:00 | Are you installing Nero from a CD or is it a downloaded file? | CYaBro (73) | ||
| 630212 | 2008-01-14 10:50:00 | How that task manager data meant to read is as follows. Image Name User Name CPU Mem Usage msiexec.exe SYSTEM 98 14,500k Nero-7.10.1.0 gza 00 1,252k msiexec.exe gza 02 22,588k System Idle Process gza 00 16k |

| 630213 | 2008-01-14 10:55:00 | Have you done any Windows Updates? You may need the latest Windows Installer for it to install correctly... |

| 630214 | 2008-01-14 12:05:00 | CYaBro, I'm installing from both,trying to,but giving it up as it freezes com. I haven't done any updates yet but I do have msi3 in com that I haven't installed yet but will in a sec. I went back to XP home as the XP Pro+ SP3 integrated I was using went screwy.I found that my Internet connection had dissappeared off screen today & any attempt to reload it with ISP install cd met all sorts of blockages.iHug tech. tried to help me set up again but i couldn't get passed the bit to choose connection method;ie dialup,broadband etc.So I threw XP Pro & reinstalled Home+SP2. I've Googled "excessive cpu usage & got a lot of hits.Just tried one that sends me into 'START>RUN etc.no joy yet.Will try loading msi3 and see what happens.As I said before, sometimes it goes in no probs,others..?? ta |

| 630215 | 2008-01-14 15:15:00 | Loaded the dammed thing! in about 10 minutes with CPU going to 100% but not staying there,varying between 30-100%.After the OS install I hadn't validated it so I did that 1st. When I tried to load Nero before I wasn't connected to the internet,(if that matters?) I loaded Win Installer 3, .NetFx3.5, IE7 & decided to get updates from www.v4 windowsupdate.microsoft.com/catalog/en and save them Locally.Saves getting them over&over. Anyway,I don't know if my not having validated Windows or not being on the net @ time of Nero install or if any one of the "didn't haves" caused the jamming of CPU,but I'd be glad to hear any opinions/thoughts on the matter. thanx |

| 630216 | 2008-01-14 18:48:00 | Well you dont have to be on the net to install Nero, if its on cd, or you've downloaded it. I would get more ram for a start. And as u found out SP3 was buggy. Dont bother installing this, until the RTM version is out. |

| 630217 | 2008-01-15 01:01:00 | Personally I have lost faith in nero after V5. The amount of problems I have had installing and updating it with XP and vista... and that is without any beta service packs. I have gone with imageburn works without a hitch in win2k, XP & Vista. CDBurnerXP also works well with win2k & XP but not vista. |

| 630218 | 2008-01-15 02:12:00 | gza. 1 It can be important to install programs in the correct sequence. 2 I have no problems [either with Windows XP or Vista Home Premium machines] when installing and subsequently using Nero 7. 3 Advice from those who do not use the program is not always impartial |
