    Some things to try.

    - Check if other software like ImgBurn, DVD Decrypter, ImgBurn, etc. see your drive.
    - Make sure the burner firmware is up to date.
    - Use Device Manager to uninstall the drive and then allow the OS to auto-reinstall upon system restart.
    - Uninstall Nero and run the Nero 8 Clean Tool. Then do a fresh reinstall of Nero.

    You can also try resetting the filters in the registry:
