i have been copying some dvd-rs with nero and i only have a 105, i do a copy using the 105 as the source drive aswell as burner. Tried to copy a dvd today and whilst reading it said not enough space on hard drive. How come its filled up? i have copied 4 films yesterday, does nero put a file on pc every time u copy a dvd? and then store it somewhere?

please help me



so i have copied 4 dvds all with say 4gb, and looks as though they arer stored on my hard drive somewhere, please help me:( :( :(

Yes, it creates an image from the original on your drive then burns it to the CDR. There's a setting in Nero that you need to check, 'delete image after burning'. In the meantime, you'll need to find the old images and delete them, can't remember where they are off hand, try temp folder or a folder within Nero.

i have looked but cannot find, its making pc very slow

any1 else know where it is

do a search in the find files part for .bin, .cue, and .iso files, they are most likely to be in one of these formats.

You should try searching for files with a .nrg extension and deleting them as this is Nero's default image file format name....

Smiffy

or maybe try searching for files above a specific size.....like 500MB. HTH

how do i search for files above 500mb without looking thru all folders etc

Go to start>search>All files and folders>what size is it>specify size> over 500 MB. This is for XP, If using something else, you need to tell us your OS

its xp i am using done a search and nothing at allcomes up over 500mb, computer now has 9.5g spare from a 40g hard drive, seems like somethings wrong major with it.


should i reformat

not yet, First I'd run virus check I recently got a stinkin' kazaa virus and it made my comp run s l o w. Took 8 hrs to run virus check but fixed the prob. I'd also d/l a HDD checking utility from maxtor or Western Digital to check your hdd for errors before reformatting. If you can't find them on those sites I'll go find them and give you a link let me know.

Yep, they are *.nrg files. Once you've selected disc copy, have a look in the 'Image' tab. That'll show you were the image is stored and is also where you need to check the 'delete image after burning' option.

not neccessarily
try a search for .vob and see what comes up

as i speak i am just running norton to check for viruses, i will do what every1 else has said and let you know

thanx every1

it took norton 13 hours 46 mins to scan my computer for viruses, is something wrong with that

I would say so, I did a full system scan last night with Norton 2002, 2 80Gb drives and it took about 30 mins.

Did you find the nrg image files ?

YES!!!! That's the exact szme thing that happened to me, though. It founf some Kazaa virus that was slowing it all sown, and it also had to do w/ some fake Norton AV virus definition file that was 52 megs large! everytime it looked throught the defs, it had to go through that, so if you find that, can it. it was something like VAV2343.tmp, just search all files and folders for *nav*.tmp and you may find it. No guarantees, tho!

by default nero images are stored in c:\
