    you could try re-installing the drivers for the drive, do you have an instilation disk?
    if not what is the make and model of your re-writer?

    im not too sure about the hp intel caleron i think you may be getting confused with the processor (intel celeron)
    download and install this program: http://www.belarc.com/Programs/advisor.exe

    what does it say under "Drives"? (it should list your hard drive(s) and cd/dvd drive(s)
