Nero 6 / "Drive in use..." error

keitaro
Because there's a possibility that someone will run into something like this, I figure I'd post my findings here. The error occurs in Nero 6 (up to 6. 0. 0. 11) where after finalizing your compilation and thus be set to burn, you'd get an error stating Drive is in use by another application.

Using Ghost v9 to backup to CD-R or CD-RW

robb
I just installed Norton Ghost. When I select the option to backup to CD-RW, I consistently get a message that the disk is either not formatted or is write protected. I have formatted both CD-R and CD-RW disks using Roxio's Direct CD (data format).

Ghost 9 will not load the browser correctly

rkollman
I have Ghost 9 installed and have made images to a partition on the hard drive and to an external USB hard drive. I have used images successfully from either media using the Ghost 9 Boot CD. (Note: DEP is enabled on my XP Pro Sp2 - as indicated by Symantec) Bottom line? The program works fine.
