DVD burner not burning

I have a _NEC DVD +-RW ND-6500A   DVD burner.  It recently stopped writing DVDs.  It still reads DVDs and CDs prefectly.  It also has no problem burning CDs.  I can not think of any software I have installed recently that might have affected this.  I just downloaded new drivers from dell.  That had no effect.

Any thoughts as to what might cause the drive to stop working?  Thanks for any help.

Yes, I believe you are right.  I think the DVD burner is dead because it burns regular CDs just fine.  Thanks for the help!
