Nero and bootable cd's?
Hi all,
I just got a burner and installed Nero 7 Essentails. I need to create a bootable cd but haven't figured out how to do that. I've been all through the software and don't see any choices for making a bootable cd. What am I missing or should I get a different program for this? thanks, charles... |

It's in 'create a data disc' or should be. If you have both dvd and cd options open you may need to look for the slider to move the page over so you can see the rest. -- Paul (Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs) ------------------------------------------------------ Stop and Look http://www.geocities.com/dreamst8me/ |

I fired up Nero and clicked on make data cd. It jumped to the screen that says ADD and REMOVE on the right side. The advanced is turned on and it shows: Options copy audio cd tracks erase disc disc info create covers and labels Nothing about making a bootable cd. anything else? charles...... |

Nothing, it's my signature :O) (just ignore it) I fired up Nero and clicked on make data cd. It jumped to the screen that says ADD and REMOVE on the right side. The advanced is turned on and it shows: Options copy audio cd tracks erase disc disc info create covers and labels Nothing about making a bootable cd. anything else? charles...... Do you not use startsmart? On my machine there are six main options for CD, favourites - data - audio - photo & video - backup - extras when I look under data the option to make a bootable cd is fourth down, under make data cd - make audio and data cd - copy cd - then it's make bootable cd. I then fired up nero directly to see if I could find bootable there and I am hoping this is right. when you go to 'new' and the box opens there should be a panel on the left, scrolling down brings up 'cd rom (boot)' which I am hoping is what you're looking for. good luck -- Paul (Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs) ------------------------------------------------------ Stop and Look http://www.geocities.com/dreamst8me/ |

Would this make a difference? I use the icon that was put into the quick launch bar in the lower left. Under data cd it has make data cd and copy data cd. Nothing about making boot cd's anywhere. I did download the latest upgrade 7.2.3.32b or somthing like that. Might this add the bootable capabilities or am I stuck paying money for something that should be there? thanks, charles..... |

Charles, on nero website there is a downloadable help file covering
making a bootable cd. It comes in a zip file so I'll post you a link and you can have a look yourself http://www.nero.com/nero7/eng/Tutorial_Data.html My version of Nero does NOT show the same/as many choices as the documentation. thanks, charles..... |

On mine there is an icon on the desktop which says nero startsmart. I am wondering if you look under start/programs/nero 7 if you can see anything like nero express or startsmart? If you can try clicking that and see if it gives you more options. -- Paul (Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs) ------------------------------------------------------ Stop and Look http://www.geocities.com/dreamst8me/ |

Damn, It seems you have a very trunkated version. I'm not familiar with this, I was kind of hoping someone else would jump in and help us out... but from what i can see from a web search you should have Nero Home (Essentials SE) Nero Scout Nero Start Smart 3 (Essentials) Nero Express 7 (Essentials) Nero Vision 4 (Essentials SE) Nero ShowTime 2 (Essentials) Nero Media Home (Essentials) InCD 5 (Essentials) Nero PhotShow Express 4 Nero PhotoSnap (Essentials SE) Nero PhotoSnap Viewer (Essentials) Nero Cover Designer 2 (Essentials) Nero ToolKit so hopefully if you can find either nero startsmart or nero express in your programs you might be able to find the option. I have my fingers crossed for you. -- Paul (Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs) ------------------------------------------------------ Stop and Look http://www.geocities.com/dreamst8me/ |

I have my fingers crossed for you. I am afriend I have a "Demo" version which does upgrade to the latest download but doesn't have all the functionality of Premium. I bought it from what I thought was a reputable software supplier but in this case it does not do what I need. I found MagicISO on the Internet and it is free. I am trying to make a bootable cd with Ghost 2003 on it for a laptop redo. I have the ghost images to reinstall and I just had to put in a new 80G drive in the laptop. I don't think Nero in its' present state will work successfully. thanks again, charles..... |
