Can I Install a DVD/rw and a CD/rw in the same computer ???

I doubt it. Sometimes though a CD-ROM drive does not like to be designated a
master or slave and jumpers need to be switched, but usually I've not found
a problem, myself.

I Think that Nero even supports multiple burners.

Should be no problem. I have a dvd burner and a cd burner in my
system. Both work just fine.
