As per Hugh and Kylde's response 

Get the retail version of Nero if you want to run multiple drives 
Bundled versions of Nero are (in my experience) specialised to only run the 
single drive with which they were supplied.

When you have the retail version 
Use the actual CD you used to install the bundled version to remove it
Then check that you have got rid of the InCD facility

Then tell the OS to uninstall the drives

Then set the drives so the OS cannot see them (pull their power or interface 
cables out)

(Or you could restore your OS as saved before you installed the drive(s) )

Then reboot so the OS is sure they don't exist

Then replug the drives

Then you can install the retail version

Reboot - check the drives are accessible and can see all the specified CD and 
DVD media (except perhaps DL) 

Then install any available updates or downloadable update version

Reboot - check the drives are accessible and can see all the specified CD and 
DVD media (except perhaps DL) 

Backup the system

And why would you need 2 instances of NERO?  I have all manner of
CD/RW/DVD-R drives and all run perfectly well with nero 4, 5, & now 6.

DOn't worry - uninstall whatever version you have and install Nero 6 then
update to 6.0.8.0 or later to get the double layer DVD options.

No problems.  If in doubt download NERO 6 from the web site it is the REAL
one and see what I mean.
