This is a multiboot system.
Win 98 on C
Win 2000 on F, that's why nero 6 is on F
Another Win 2000 on G.
I'll try the Merge later when I next boot to F.
FYI:
Being a masochist, I decided to try Nero 6.0.0.11 in Win 98.
1. No problem installin Nero 6.0.0.11, indeed, without installing multimounter, one still gets the Volues Tab.
2. Flush from my in installing Nero, I installed NVE2011.exe, with no apparent problems.
3. Oh well, it was too good to last!
I next installed InCD40121.exe. No apparent problem UNTIL the reboot after the install.
a. System hung while Microsoft Office Shortcut Bar was starting at startup.
b. Clicking on Start button got me to SEttings, then to Control Panel, but clicking on Control Panel was a NO-OP. I was able to get to Control Panel working from My Computer.
c. Before the system hung, everything looked great, system tray icons appeared, but then suddenly icons in system tray vanished and time partially disappeared.
I tried several times, by disabling things such as scanner software, Microsoft Office Shortcut Bar, etc.
I am a bit groggy now, or perhaps you cannot tell the difference, I also tried dropping back to InCD 4017, I forget where the full stops go.
So cannot use Nero 6 in Win 98.
I can use Nero 5.5.10.42 with InCD 3.5.24.0, but I cannot find an EWR that will install in Win 98. Trying EWR (1.0.1.0, or 3.3.2.0) results in a continuous reboot, so I have to go into SDafe Mode and uninstall EWR.

Again, it only works with Win95/98/ME in versions before v6.kaikow wrote:I did exactly what you did, but Ahead should have provided an automated install, rather than relying on users to do so many steps.
I agree that the install is tricky, and seems more like a "hack" than a normal install. On the other hand, Nero users seem to like and expect complexity and "tricks" as if this was a positive design benefit. Competing software that is easy to use is denigrated as being "beginner software". If you want to be a true blue Nero user, fasten your techno-machismo armor, grit your teeth and enjoy the complications. 8)
I noticed in your MultiMounter.reg file that your Nero directory is on your F: drive. On my system the Program Files are in the same directory as the operating system. I wouldn't think that this should be causing your problem, but any differences are worth noting and investigating if necessary.
Did you use the "Merge" command by right-clicking on the MultiMounter.reg file? Did you received the confirmation message that the .reg file had been merged into the registry? If you don't recall, do the "Merge" procedure again to make sure. Repeating it won't cause a problem and will just overwrite an earlier entry.
