Check to make sure you dont have anything like Real player bubbling in the background, as well as your mp3 player having some disc writing/cd associated plugin loaded.
also try a clean reboot, then start nero up first before anything else..

Open up task manager and browse your process list - check that imapi.exe isn't already loaded. If it is kill it and relaunch Nero.

OP
:( none of that seems to work. to be more specific it says drive is in use by another application. i tried turning the nero plugin off on wmp too.
maybe you have chosen the wrong recorder ?
goto prefs and check

You may have a problem with both nero 5 and 6 install, 6 may think 5 or another app is the prefered program. try uninstalling/reinstalling 6

as I see in a german forum you are not the only one ... seems to be real bug in nero 6 wait for new version ....

OP
Ill do that thanks 8)

OP
latest version fixed the problem :lol:
hehe .... and is it worth the upgrade ? .... not really ... the only difference I noticed up to now is that if you have to profiles open you got 2 entries in taskbar like office XP with 2 text documents ...
but the file browser still sucks ass .....
it does not save positions of detail categories .... and even more since nero 6
due it does not save positions i changed to horizontal layout for easy resize ... since nero6 the bug is introduced, that when you choose a saved profile it only arranges vertical ... the more funny thing ... in menu bar it show horizontal
THAT SUCKS !!! that was the most thing i hope they fix in nero 6 but ... it got worse ... :(

OP
i just wanted it for the new interface which isnt that great its not too much of a improvement. I noticed now when i go to burn stuff it says drive in use:imapi or something but then continues on and burns.
now we just gotta bug em on the nero forums for a better file browser
