It didn't even as me for my number, here's what I did.
1. Uninstalled InCD Reader, InCD and Nero in that order. 2. Installed latest Nero, InCD and InCD Reader in that order. Never asked me for the serial number, instead, the number was pulled out of the registry. -- http://www.standards.com/; See Howard Kaikow's web site. |

Wow, a bug in Nero!
Who would have thought ...! -- http://www.standards.com/; See Howard Kaikow's web site. "Edvard Ringen" wrote in message ... Take a look at http://www.cdrlabs.com/phpBB/viewtop...404f d8076c14 Mr CCampbell is an employee of Ahead, and he states: "Hello everyone, Looks like this is a bug in our Nero 6.6 software. This is being worked on now, and before long we will have a new version posted to resolve this issue. In the meantime, we do have the list of serial keys that are valid, but will be reported as Invalid by our Nero 6.6 software, and our Tech's have been made aware of this issue. If you encounter this problem, send an Email to and provide your Name, Email address, and Serial key. They will confirm its valid and on the list, and respond back with a new Nero 6.6 Serial key. We have a 5 working day response time, but you will be able to use Nero 6.6 in Demo mode till you get a response from our Tech Support team. Sorry for the trouble. Regards, Craig" So I guess that ends the discussion... :-) Ed |

Interesting that he also got a pop-up message that he had to
reactivate Windows XP Pro, even though there were no substantial changes. It appears that in some cases, this new Nero release has some serious bugs. It was from the download version update by the way, not the CD. The Nero official stance is to notify them, then MAYBE in 5 days they will get back to you with a correct serial number. Sounds rather risky right now. I think I will wait until they get the kinks out of their update, which may be by Version 7.35.778.343. "Dan G" wrote in message ... I've also seen some references to problems where a person's hardware has been changed since the original install of Nero. Ala: WindowsXP activation scheme. I hope this is not what is occurring. But in this particular case, the problem was circumvented by re-installing with the Nero CD from scratch, then updating to 6.6. "TommyDale" wrote in message om... "Dan G" wrote in message ... AFAIK, 6.6 is limited to free upgrades for owners of original retail licenses. It may not work on OEM serials, but maybe someone can clarify this who has an OEM version. "Mike O'Sullivan" wrote in message ... TommyDale wrote: The good news is that this new version is finally released officially. The bad news is that it may not recognize previous serial numbers. A friend just notified me that his doesn't work. Why is this a problem. If you buy it I assume they give you a new serial? The guy tells me he purchased the 6.3 version, and when he updated, it would not allow him to run the updated version because it says the serial number is not valid. I think this is a problem for anyone who legitimately purchased the full version 6, and thinks he/she will automatically get a free update. |

I had that XP reactivation problem as well. No problem with the ser. no. But
as soon as I installed 6.6 I got the cursed "Your harware has changes significantly..." message and had to reactivate XP rtr TommyDale wrote: Interesting that he also got a pop-up message that he had to reactivate Windows XP Pro, even though there were no substantial changes.

I didn't even bother uninstalling, you're given the option to simply update
what's already there during installation of the new files. With my own version of Nero 6, the upgrade was simple/painless. "Howard Kaikow" wrote in message ...
