Have you tried deleting it from the device list, then rebooting to let Vista
redetect it?

Both my DVD burners are listed as "ATA Device" on my Vista box, and both
work fine with my software of choice, Nero 7. It looks like your drive *is*
being recognized. What are you unable to do with it, using what burning
software?
