I just had my harddrive formated and reinstalled windows (xp pro).My drives are only showing up as cd drivers and dvd drives. I tried to remove them from device manager and reinstall but it did the same thing, I also tried to remove them and replug them in , got the same effect, I found a driver for one I think but even after I installed it still only shows up as a dvd drive
Here is the drives I have

HP Cd-Writer cd16r

&

LITE-ON DVDRW SHM-165H6S
