Re-reading my post, I think I should have been a bit clearer.
The Nero 7 Essentials that I used was an OEM version which came with a DVD burner. I have upgraded to a newer/faster burner, which isn't recognised by Nero 7 Essentials - hence the upgrade to Nero 8.
IHoe, Im not sure if you're saying that my Nero 8 serial number is good for Nero 7.10.1.0 I'd be grateful if you could clarify.
well......... I too had a serial # with Nero 6 OEM version that came with my burner about 2 yrs ago. I upgraded to Nero 7 using the same serial #..... and that's where I am as of today. I'm sure if you have a Nero 8 serial # it should work for Nero 7. If it doesn't then you can always upgrade again using that serial #. right? what do you have to lose in trying?

The same routine also worked for me when I went to Nero 7.10.10 from Nero 6 OEM.
