Nero has too good of a reputation for me to think they were trying to DECEIVE you into buying a retail version to replace your OEM version. (Encourage, YES. Deceive, NO.) It is entirely possible that the known compatibility problem may not exist on your system because of your configuration or your hardware, drivers or other items may have been updated or configured to work around the issue. Nero OEM versions are limited to operate with the equipment it comes with and only features that the manufacturer decided (read PAID) to have implemented for its customers. It is possible that the known compatibility issue may be with a feature that the OEM decided NOT to implement in its OEM version. If you go to the Nero website and/or the DVD burner manufacturers website, I'm sure you can find more information about this issue and a patch, update or other download that will fix it.
