Hi,

I'm having trouble trying to register Nero6608 silently. I use the code as shown below to install with my xplode setup..

<item display="Nero Burning ROM 6.6.0.8">
 	 <execute display="Installing">
    <program>#systemdrive#\Install\Nero6608a\Setup.exe</program>
    <arguments>/SILENT /NO_UI /NOREBOOT /SN=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx /WRITE_SN</arguments>
    <wait>true</wait>
 	 </execute>
  </item

The program installs fine but upon first use I am asked for my serial number again. After giving it my s/n it will then work. Why isn't it registering my product during install?

wrong serial ?

I had the same problem ,

nero accept to install silent , after that , he ask me the serial ?

I dont know how , what was wrong , but after a lot of changes

I can use now the silent install for nero 6.6.0.5

cmd1[pn]=['%cdrom%\\WinApp\\Nero_v6_6_0_5\\nero6605.exe /SN=xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx /WRITE_SN /SILENT /NO_UI /NOREBOOT /NOLICENSE /NOCANCEL']

i use this way, is better:

RunOnceEx.cmd

...

REG ADD %KEY%\005 /VE /D "Nero Burning 6.0" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 1 /D "REGEDIT /S %CDROM%\software\nero\regnero.reg" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\005 /V 2 /D "%CDROM%\software\nero\Nero-6.6.0.12.exe /silent /noreboot" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\010 /VE /D "Nero Burning LANG" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\010 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\software\nero\Nero-6.6.0.12_ita.exe /silent /noreboot" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "Nero Vision 3.0" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\software\nero\NVE-3.1.0.0d.exe /silent /noreboot" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "Nero Vision LANG" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "%CDROM%\software\nero\NVE-3.1.0.0d_ita.exe /silent /noreboot" /f

wrong serial ?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Read my post again.

@Darkimage: I'll try your method and let you know how I go. Would it matter if I apply the reg after install?

Thanks for helping

OK,

This still isn't working.

I apply a registry entry containing my serial before the application is installed. I will try moving this to after the program is installed. Here's my .xml and .reg snippits just incase someone can see what I'm missing.

<item display="Nero Burning ROM 6.6.0.8">
  	<execute display="Installing">
    <program>#systemdrive#\Install\Nero6608a\Setup.exe</program>
    <arguments>/SILENT /NO_UI /NOREBOOT</arguments>
    <wait>true</wait>
  	</execute>
  </item>

"Company"=""
"Serial6"="xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx"

There are no typo's in the serial, it will work correctly if I put it in manually on first run

I don't know if a way is better then other

for me better is the easy way

so , one single call with parameters is the most easy way .

and I don't know what was wrong before

but now work for me fine in WPI 3.5

use Felix way is better and easer to do.

use Felix way is better and easer to do.

Felix way? Can you elaborate on that a little or direct me to post that you are reffering to? I don't see anyone posts in this thread with the name Felix.

You may be interested to know that when I move the reg entry to AFTER the program install it works. The program is now fully functional, however, for some strange reason in the Start>Programs list it is still called Nero 6 Demo.

And if I have the reg applied BEFORE the program installation, the title in the Start>Programs list is called Nero Burning Rom but the program is in demo mode.... very strange.

here it is

Felix

Cheers, I'll give it a try.

Hey, try this one. it is the most easiest way what I know.

1.Extract　Nero-6.6.0.8.exe (whatever versions)

2.Make a SFX file using WinRAR - self extract, solid, highest compress

(see below)

3.click to install or use a run command.

for instance %CDROM%\software\nero\Nero-6.6.0.8.exe

No need any switches, reg files.

4.You can enjoy

Regarding 2.

Paste below command in a comment space

;The comment below contains SFX script commands

Setup=setup.exe /SN=****-****-****-****-****-**** /WRITE_SN /SILENT /NO_UI /NOREBOOT /NOLICENSE /NOCANCEL
TempMode
Silent=1
Overwrite=1
