alright dude...i was having the same problems as you and this is what you have to do...
this is only with nero!!! i'm using 5.5.9.0
1. make sure the file that you want to burn is in wave format
2. make sure the cue file is in the same folder as the file that you just made into wave format
3. make sure both the wave file and the cue file have exactly the same names
3. if you open the cue file, it should look like this:
| quote: | FILE "whatever is the name of your file.wav" WAVE
TRACK 01 AUDIO
TITLE "Unknown"
PERFORMER "Unknown"
INDEX 01 00:00:00
TRACK 02 AUDIO
TITLE "Unknown"
PERFORMER "Unknown"
INDEX 01 04:10:68
TRACK 03 AUDIO
TITLE "Unknown"
PERFORMER "Unknown"
INDEX 01 05:22:63 |
4. now that you have done all the above, it's time open nero
5. add the file that you want to burn, immediately after doing that, double click the file you just inserted and a menu should pop up...on track properties, change the "pause" from 2 sec. to 0 sec., click "ok"
6. then add your cue file by selecting "file", "burn image", and double clicking your cue file to insert it into nero
7. you are now ready to burn your file 
after all this...i personally don't like to use cue file with nero 
for some reason, with mine anyway, when the cd is complete and you listen to it, there is a quick, high pitch irritation where the "tracks" come together. i don't know if this will happen to you, but, for me, it drives me crazy...so, i put in the "tracks" manually without cue sheets...and i have never had a cd that wasn't smooth to my ears. to do that, it takes just a minute longer, and you have to follow these directions:

hmmm, it seems like people think that using a cue sheet or mp3 cutting prog is the only way to cut up sets easily. here is what i do if i can't get the cue sheet working properly the first time. it only takes about 3 minutes longer to do than using a cue sheet, its fool-proof, and you get the exact same effect. this is only for NERO tho...
what will this accomplish? this will allow you to take a set/album that is all one big mp3, and burn it in audio mode onto a cd-r. it will have track indexes (so you can flip from track to track) without gaps or crackles when the track changes. 
open up your cue sheet in Notepad, leave it open in the background. once nero is opened up, and you have put the set you want to burn into the "compilation window"...
1. double-click on the file in the compilation window.
2. the "audio track info" window will pop-up, click the "indexes, limits, split" tab.
3. click in the "oscilloscope" area, somewhere near the end (a line will show up on the oscilloscope).
4. click the "split" button.
5. click the "edit" button.
6. the "edit split position" window will pop-up, read the time of the split from your cue-sheet, and type it into the this window. then click "ok".
*repeat 4-6 until all the indexes are how they should be.*
7. click "ok" on the "audio track info" window. it will ask you if "you really want to split up this file into blah blah pieces", click "yes". it will take a minute or two for your comp to process this step, so just let it work.
8. once your back in the compilation window, select every track (by holding down "ctrl" and single-clicking) except for the first track, then double-click on them.
9. the "audio track info" window will pop-up, set the "pause" to 0 seconds, and press "ok". once back in the compilation window, make sure that the first track has a pause of 2 seconds, and all the rest have a pause of 0 seconds.
10. make sure your compilation is set to "disc-at-once" mode. you do this in: file/compilation info/burn then select "disc-at-once" from the "write method" menu.
*if you're going to burn it again someday, you can save all this as a nero compilation file. but when you open the compilation file, make sure the mp3 is in the same directory as it was when you saved the compilation file, and it'll do all this automatically.*
i'm not trying to insult anyone's intelligence, but i couldn't figure out why people were making such a big deal about cue sheets not working properly. so i thought maybe they didn't know about this way. it only takes a couple minutes, so if you're stuck, give it a try.
