tjhart85 Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 I downloaded it via BitTorrent and it seems to be packed differently. The normal switch needs to be modified.When you double click the EXE, it uncompresses it (like normal) and then launches a setup wizard which asks you what you want to install. The normalstart /wait %systemdrive%\install\Nero\nero66.exe /SILENT /NOREBOOT /SN=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX /WRITE_SNcode doesn't seem to understand. I managed to get just the normal setup to install by finding the nero folder in %temp% and going to the "nero 6" folder and running the normal code that can be seen above. I don't even know what NeroVision Express is, so i don't know if its even worth installing. What's it do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotjong Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 I don't even know what NeroVision Express is, so i don't know if its even worth installing. What's it do?About 30 seconds worth of looking at the Ahead website would have yielded you this.NeroVision Express 2 easily leads you through the whole process of making Video CDs, Super Video CDs, and high-value DVDs.Now you can transfer all your old home movies and start developing perfect home videos without any difficulty. Be creative and share the results with your family and friends. Store your memories safely on CD or DVD so that future generations will be able to enjoy them too.For those commenting on the supposed size of the new version, I cannot say I am surprised by it. This same situation happened when the initial releases of Nero 6 were leaked. The installer came with all the parts combined in one installer and it had multiple languages.rotjong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjhart85 Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 About 30 seconds worth of looking at the Ahead website would have yielded you this.I wasn't interested enough to actually go looking, or to ask the question by itself, but tacking the question on to what I was already saying only took about 5 seconds and was worth asking.I was just trying to post everything I had found out. You can set up a silent install, but only each parts individually (at least thats what I found its more than possible that it exists, but i'm too stupid to find it).

totoymola Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I figured out how to install this program silently, with the serial number written.Note: My Nero 6.6 is the one that is 80.3mb in size, which I got from BitTorrent.Ok, so here is how to do it.1) Extract the files of the single file installer. (I used WinRAR.)2) You will see several folders, and a setup.exe. But that is not the one that we need.3) Go to the Nero 6 folder, and you will see another setup.exe there. That is the one that we need to do a silent install.4) Use the old switch. That's it.setup.exe /SILENT /NOREBOOT /SN=XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX /WRITE_SN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoymola Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 The only problem that I see here is it still creates the NERO DEMO in the start menu instead of NERO ENTERPRISE EDITION or NERO ULTRA EDITION. But I think it is not a problem anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToBe Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Yes, that works, but it doesn't install NeroVision Express or Nero Media Player, only Nero Burning Rom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoymola Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 By the way, this will install Nero 6.6 ONLY. So we can remove the NeroVision Express 3 and the Nero Media Player folder if we don't need them, in order to save A LOT of space. Because in my case, the combined size of NeroVision and Nero Media Player is about 130mb! Dang! That's a lot! But in case we want to install these softwares, we can simply do the same thing to them.

Astalavista Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 (edited) this thing is a monster, it is HUGE! there is got to be a way to slim it down some how, after extracting the file it is 122 MB that is after deleting nerovision and nero media player.It is almost the same size as that of Corel Draw 12. *link removed Edited October 6, 2004 by prathapml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astalavista Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 sorry did not know that emule links are not allowed.since the link i provided is for the shareware version of nero 6.6so would it be ok to post a link to the shareware that is not emule?

Jito463 Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I think I'll wait for the official release. 6.3 works fine for me atm, so no need to rush for the latest. I'll let them get the bugs worked out right and then release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 so would it be ok to post a link to the shareware that is not emule?Yes, if it is not a site that has any other warez. But software that is not released generally, is probably so for a good cause - maybe last minute bugs, or agreements with OEMs to make them feel special, so that it is available in the retail market a bit later. In such cases, its probably improper to have the unreleased software, and still be on the correct side of the law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alanoll Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Unbundling:Some of Ahead’s programs are distributed as OEM (original equipment manufacturer) software. These are only legally distributed when “bundled” with specified hardware.Unbundling occurs when the OEM disk is not sold with the bundled hardware. Unbundling violates the software license and constitutes copyright infringement. Ahead clearly marks its OEM software “Licensed for use with the sale of a CD/DVD recorder only.”Duplicating:It is copyright infringement to duplicate and distribute any of Ahead’s software, including OEM software, even if there is no attempt to pass off the software as a legitimate disk made by Ahead. End users are not authorized by Ahead to copy the software for anyone else—be it a friend, relative, coworker, or internet acquaintance.Don't post the link. I will remove it. Sorry. Just saw that on Nero's website, and don't wanna get MSFN in trouble. Though what goes on in private, we can't control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
