Hey guys,
You don't seem to be the only one having this problem Mebs, the exact same thing is also happening to me. I can run Nero Express no problem, but Burning Rom always gets an application error:
Nero Burning ROM:nero.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x027dd51b" referenced memory at "0x0000000c". The memory could not be "read".
Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program
Despite the option to "debug", it gets closed either way. Additionally, I have tried uninstalling, and reinstalling several times, and I have tried running utilities like registry mechanic, and just about any other varient of that. The only thing that I can think of, is trying to use a different cd-key, but I don't know how that could possibly make any difference.
