I have ACER travelmate 4252mlci model with 1.73GHz, 256mb ram and DVD/CD-RW Combo drive with NERO-7.5.1.1_eng. Here if i start WRITINGA CD it takes nearly 30 mins but the same data if i start writting from desktop it takes just 5-6mins only. And the desktop is of lower configuration then laptopthere you go.... good job! That is what we call "more info" .....hehehe.... just messn'

ok, in my humble OPINION, Nero 7 sucks!!! Nero 6 is good. For some reason, when they made 7 it bacame REALLY slow. Trust me, i have both! Ok, it sounds like you are just making data. Not MUSIC or video. If so again tell us.

If it were me, i would choose the right program for the job. If your making video compilations, then get nero 6, if your making music CD's, i would use a program CALLED Nero 6, and if your just doing data like files, folders and what not, there is this great program out there that is actually pretty common, i'm pretty sure is called Nero version 6. Not sure, so don't quote me on that. So yea, hope that helps.
