CDR Driver Trouble

[roy gerbil]

I recently purchased an open box Hp CdWriter 9350i. The driver cd was broken and i cannot seem to get it to be detected in the system tab so no burning software detects it. The only way i can get it to be detected in "my computer", in fact, is if I go and put the real mode dos drivers in my config.sys and autoxec file. THis puts the drive in compatability mode and it still doesnt show up in devices.
