rpiz Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 I am looking for suggestions in regard to burning software that doesn't require .NET framework. Supposedly, there is currently some conflicts in using .NET framework with Windows XP SP3??Until these issues are resolved I would like to use a quality burning tool and perhaps othershave tested a number of choices?Thanks Quote

Otherwise, my money is on Nero. I'm still using version 6.6 and have no desire or need to pay for an upgrade. It's been working great. Quote
Ed_P Posted July 6, 2009 Posted July 6, 2009 ImgBurn and NERO are both excellent choices. Another one to consider would be DeepBurner. There are both free and paid versions. http://www.deepburner.com/?r=news&id=58 Quote
Peachy Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I know you don't want a .NET app, but CD Burner XP has never given me any problems in Windows XP with SP3. Quote
rpiz Posted July 7, 2009 Author Posted July 7, 2009 Peachy,What version of .NET framework are you using with Windows XP SP3? I understand there wereissues with version 3.5 and not just with SP3. ThanksStriker, Ed_P, TushmanThanks for the suggestions. I'll have to test out these programs to determine the best fit. Quote
Peachy Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 It depends. I usually have .NET 2.0 installed, sometimes 3.0. What issues does .NET cause in your experience? Is it specifically with the current burning app you are using or other applications? Quote

What are your burning needs? Quote

ThanksStriker, Ed_P, TushmanThanks for the suggestions. I'll have to test out these programs to determine the best fit.v2.x of .NET didn't gave me any problems, but 3.5 did... with its familypack or something like that, and it installed an extension for Firefox without asking. There's a way to do this without asking and without FF blocking it: they did that. And afterwards, just try to get rid of that extension... There are ways and one of it I seem to remember I posted here at the forums. Imo: if you don't need that piece of 3.5 .NET, leave it where it is: at Microsofts servers and don't touch it, not even with a ten feet pole. Quote

I have XP SP3 and .NET 3.5 SP1, which came out in May I think, and I haven't encountered any problems. Quote
