Burn a disc using Nero Burning Room

Nero Burning ROM is the leading burning program today. However, there are quite a few points to note when burning discs that you will be guided in the following article to avoid errors that corrupt the backup disk or "drop" the disk.

1. When you burn a bootable CD in the way of writing CD-ROM (Boot) on Nero Burning Room software, if the image file is a file made from a floppy disk with the boot capability combined using the WinImage software to add files like ghost (Symantec Ghost 8.0 has taken 1.3MB), pqmagic (Partition Magic 8.02) and many other program files, then the image file size must be 2.88MB.

When burning Boot disk from this image file, if you only select the path to the * .IMA image file and perform the recording by default of the Nero program, the disc will be corrupted and cannot be booted, you need to pay attention. Enable expert settings section (for advanced users only) in the Boot tab. In Kind of emulation , you must choose Floppy Emulation 2.88MB for image file is 2.88MB .

Note : if you make an image file of only 1.44MB, you still choose as default Floppy Emulation 1.44MB .

2. When writing data with file names too long as html files downloaded from the network, if you write these files as default, the file name will be only 8 characters as in DOS, it is very difficult to identify the correct data whether, when opening these html files to view offline, there will be no images in the website anymore because it cannot link to the corresponding html file folders.

To prevent this from happening, go to File > Preferences menu, select the File Browser tab, leave the DOS names similar to Windows Explorer blank.

3. When writing to a recording mode repeatedly, if you do not record correctly, the data at the next recording will cover the data at the previous recording. If you want to add data at the next recording without losing data at previous times, follow these steps:

You choose how to burn CD-ROM (ISO) in Start mode Multisession disc at the first recording. On the next recording, select Continue Multisession disc and select the Refresh Compilation item automaticaly (without asking) . After that, you choose the last Session to retain the full data at the previous recording. You just need to copy the data to be added to any directory in the previous record.

4. When writing Ghost files to a CD, you should choose to write in the CD-ROM (Boot) format as mentioned above on the first Ghost file to boot and run the Ghost program immediately. This is very convenient for you to boot, run the ghost command on the CD and perform recovery right from the file on the disk. The boot speed of the disk is done in such a way much faster than the ones with Hiren's BootCD, as well as the job is completely simple if you have created the * .IMA 2.88MB image file containing the ghost file and the Other software used in DOS for multiple uses for later burning.

Creating a 2.88MB image file from a floppy disk combined with WinImage, you can review the instructions on the newspaper at the first number. Especially note when recording Ghost files, you need to choose the write speed must be smaller than 40x for safety, because the ghost files are large in size nearly 700MB, almost if recording at high speed is when performing recovery will Immediately report an error, unlike when writing discrete data, there may be only a few files damaged.

5. When burning a VCD disc by burning a Video CD, if you add additional data, the names of all the additional data, including folders and files, will be in all capital letters, not as true. The original file name, this is very difficult to edit the file name later, especially when the data recorded is relatively high.
