sorry to hear you are having trouble with your new board.
However, your problem with Nero and your CD burner seems to be that you want to perform a packet writing to the CD, that means a CD-RW action. Before you will be able to use your CD-RW you have to format it. This means you will have to dl the packet writing plug-in from the ahead (nero) site and install it. The standard burning app won't be able to perform this task - it can only delete a CD partition.
The CD format command will set up a file system on your CD-RW, so that you can copy your files. No file system - no CD-RW.
