No dvd writer detected

First lets get this over with. 865PEARL, P4, 2.8Ghz, 2G ram, Radeon 9600SE,
SoundBlaster Audigy4, Intel HP dvd writer dvd630i, 2-160G sata internal
drives, 1-160G IDE external.

After installing Vista Beta on here and finding fixes and/or work arounds
for most of the usual problems, I tried to write some backups to a dvd and
the computer tells me I don't have a writer installed. I have tried to
re-install the software for the writer and all will install, however when it
searches for a writer on my computer, it tells me that it can't be found.
Under device manager, it lists it as a cd/dvd rom drive, not a writer. Media
Center says I don't have a writer either. I have tried to use a multitude of
writing programs, all tell me the same thing. Anyone have any answers?
