LG GSA 4040B DVD Writer and Nero 6.0.0

I'm using Nero 6.0.0 and have purchased a new DVD burner, the LG GSA 4040B
burner.

When I'm on the final burning step, Nero recognizes my burner as D: HL-DT-SD
DVDRAM GSA-4040B (CD-R/RW). It doesn't recognize the DVD capability of this
drive. Yet, the burning software that came with the drive (Gold version 5)
works and recognizes the drive as a DVD drive.

Any thoughts on how I can get Nero to work with my burner?

Thank you

If the Nero is a retail version then get an upgrade from www.nero.com . If
its an OEM version that came bundled with another drive then it will never
recognise the LG.

Assuming for the moment that you're using the Nero Burning Rom
interface, rather than the Express...

If you look in the upper left corner of the dialog that comes up when
you elect to make a new compilation, you'll see a small drop down menu
box. It will give you options for CD, DDCD, DVD, and HDBURN. The
default option is CD, and if that's what's selected, you'll only see
the CD burning options.

If you click on it and select 'DVD', you'll see the DVD burning
options. It's pretty easy to overlook.

I've not used the Express interface, but I'd imagine it does something
similar somewhere.
