I’m having trouble burning dvd with nero 8 to a new external dvd disk drive burner—All windows media works with the new dvd burner but when I click burn with nero 8 it does’nt even find the new burner it only finds the computers disk drives– I already made the new dvd disk drive the computers recording default burner. Can you explain how to fix this problem or is there a way to make the external the primary drive for the whole computer?

There are a couple of things you can try:
Right-click My Computer>Right-Click on the drive, go to Properties, then Recording Tab & check the "Enable CD Recording On This Drive" box. Click Apply & OK.
Right-click My Computer>Properties>Hardware>Device Manager
Go IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers, select your burner, right click, select Properties/Advanced & make sure the Transfer Mode is DMA – not P10.
Try Nero’s InfoTool – under Tools in StartSmart. See if it recognizes your external drive.
Hope you get it working.

It has been my experience with Nero that some times it does not recognize the fact that you have installed a new device/dvd burner. The only thing that I have been able to come up with just from previous issues of my own with that is to re-install Nero if you have a copy of it. If you don’t you can get one at a local retail shop pretty cheap, and sometimes from websites that offer it for free. Also check Nero’s burning preffrences sometimes in the options tab for preffrences you are able to change default devices.
