IS there DVD Burn Software for a PIII 600?

[JoeBolden]

I have a PIII 600 384 Mb Ram 120 Gb HD
I am getting a LiteOn DVD+/-RW LITEON SOHW-1673S 16x+/-, 4x DL
for $65 delivered.
The requirement for this hardware is a P 450 or higher.
Nero 6 requires P 1.2G or higher for DVD Burning.
Is there other software that I can use that will allow me to burn DVD's with my PIII 600
That is all the money I have right now.

Thanks,

Joe

A PIII 600 should be quite adequate for burning DVD. DVDDecrypter comes to mind for a low end system.

I've been transferring, encoding, authoring, and burning DVDs (with Nero 6) with a Pentium III 550. It could go a little faster, but you'll have no problem.

I might advise a drive a bit larger than 120mb.

I'm guessing it's 120GB not 120mb

my system up until about 4 months ago was a celeron 500mhz with 192 megs ram and 2 20 gig drives and i never had a problem.

Yes 120GB Thanks and I corrected it

I will have to see if Nero will work
from their website
nero 6.0 update mentions the following

trust me, it works. mind you i didn't do other stuff while i was burning, but i never had a coaster and i burned a lot of discs on that system.

This is what you should be concerned about - And you're fine at this point.

For DVD and video authoring:
- 1.2Ghz Intel® Pentium III process or equivalent
- 128MB RAM
For real−time capturing and burning:
- 1.6Ghz Intel® Pentium IV processor or equivalent
- 128MB RAM

Nero shouldn't be used for these purposes anyway, so it should be of no concern.
