463841 2006-06-17 08:47:00 I’ve just had to replace an elderly CD/RW with another second hand one.

Only problem is Nero is installed and advises it only works with the CD/RW it was packaged with! (Well, that’s the broken one) :(

Now, who would know what the replacement CD ROM was packaged with? :confused:

So, what is the accepted way to solve this impasse?

It reads OK, it just needs Burning Software. Oh, OS=Win98se.

Life ain't meant to be easy. :D

463842 2006-06-17 09:04:00 Have a look at [/url=http://www.cdburnerxp.se/features.php]CDBurnerXP[/url] and yes, even though it say's XP, it does work with Win98.

463843 2006-06-17 09:05:00 Its saying that coz its an OEM version.. And will only work with the original burner it came with.

This is based on the serial # you typed in Nero to register it.

Only way to change this, is to change the serial number. If u had one.

Then it'll work.

463844 2006-06-17 09:29:00 Can you not just ask the person/outfit you got the replacement drive from if there was any burning software bundled with it? If not, then you'll just have to pay ya $$$ for a new Nero License or use a free one.. gibler (49)
463845 2006-06-18 00:18:00 Yep, I tried that CDBurnerXP Pheonix and it seems to go ok on 98se . In fact, it looks quite good .

Had one hang-up but that may have been my fault . :blush:

However, how do you stop it finalising a disk so as to have a multisession disk? :confused:
