If you are using the version of Nero which you were using with your old
burner than that version of Nero may not recognise your new burner. As far
as windows is concerned your burner is just a CDRom. It is the burning
software that recognises it as a burner.
Also make sure that your burner is not running in PIO mode on the IDE
controller. IT should be in UDMA 2 mode.
