no clue - nero does not do it at all? whatabout roxio?
 
when you format it as you first formating it, then making a new disc to make or making your disc - then just telling nero to burn it and it then fornats it?
 
make sure your drive is supported by nero.

the problem is, dvd-ram is meant to work just as InCD with some kind of packet writing i think. So you can't just burn it like a normal DVD-/+R/W (or maybe you can, but thats not the real purpose), but windows has to detect is as a real drive, were you can just copy your files on. it think perhaps the problem is that windows server 2003 doesn't really want a driver to get full control over a drive or somethink like that.

I had the same problem, but I resolved.
 
1. Install the DVD-RAM driver with Windows XP compatibility mode.
2. Use the formating tools also with XP compatibility mode.
