Nero and several other burning applications are failing to recognise my DVD drive the only option I am getting is a virtual drive to save an image file. The drive itself is operating fine and will burn material using windows explorer and will read DVD's etc if material present on them, any ideas what could be causing this have tried updating/rolling back drivers and re-installing the programmes

Nero Doesn't See My Burner - Only Recognizes Image Recorder:

If so, you probably have a virus/rootkit on your system that's blocking access to the drives.

Disabling the virus with GMER:
