I purchased Nero 7 then about 1 month later signed up for Nero 8 and got it
after that. CAN'T GET IT TO INSTALL on 2 PC computers, one running Win XP
Pro SP2, the other Vista Business. It gets into a "boot loop" and states
that there's a Windows update "pending" -- wanna reboot? Then, reboot,
after reboot, after reboot, ad infinitum. Then, I tried it on yet a third PC
running Vista Home, but, after thoroughly removing Nero 7, running Nero
GeneralCleanTool, Regseeker, Registry First Aid Platinum (all paid for), and
REBOOTING many times in between, to my amazement, it installed (takes about
15 minutes--"bloated" is a far understatement!!). Wait... Then, upon
execution of Nero 8 SmartStart, it bombs out on MS Runtime C++ error,
abnormal program termination. Nero support has been less than helpful, you
know, trivial help... I have a credit card chargeback pending. A word to
the wise!! Buy it, try it, if you don't believe me!! BTW, Nero 8 failed on
3 PCs. Nero 7 worked OK on all 3 PCs. Stephen F.
