There's some talk about on the web related to the need to update the drives firmware .

As for nero ... it could simple be the version , esspecially if it was not included with the unit .
If the version dose include dl ... install , and try using imgburn to burn a dl .

From other source's , dl burning is supported by other units under :

Microsoft Windows 98, Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition, Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows NT, Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition, Microsoft Windows XP

And to save yourself some headaches most recommend Verbatim +R DL discs for movies.

I used a Pioneer 110 and a NEC 3540 burners with Verbatim D/L disks in Windows ME without any problem. I used Nero 6.3,your "bundled" version is probablly Nero7 which I believes requires Windows XP.
You can probably find Nero 6 on ebay around $10.00 On later Pioneer's you should use an ATA66 cable,older ATA33 cables won't work properly because the 110 and 111 are ATA66 drives.

You may find the FAT32 me file system a limiting factor for dual layer backup/burning too.
