Although this is one of the better versions of Nero, there is a later version available 7.10.1.0 from here http://www.filehippo.com/download_nero_7_premium/?2893 Your burner is quite old so it may not recognize the latest media. This is interesting, your burner recognises your disc as a CD...are you sure you are using DVDs You have Roxio installed, it clashes with Nero, to remove, run this zapper http://www.softpedia.com/get/Tweak/Uninstallers/Roxio-Zap.shtml
