I have an older model of that drive and I had problems that got solved by doing two things:

1) Flashing better firmware
2) Using different media if (1) doesn't help. Use Datawrite and TDK disks.

By the way I had to get a non-NEC firmware patch to get my drive to write dual-layer DVDs. Otherwise it would not recognise an 8.5 gb disc. (I initially thought it was a Nero problem, but it is not). Look for the thread Double Layer DVD, and see the link I posted for Brian. There are firmware updates for your drive that should solve the problem.

But the problem is unlikey to be Nero. It is more likely to be the firmware on the drive or the media used.

Edit: try this firmware.
