    Anyone know where to get a DVD/CD driver for a 1530 XPS with Windows XP? Will the Vista driver work?

    (My CD/DVD player will play music fine but it won't write to a CD/DVD. Dell says they've voided my warranty because I removed Vista and installed XP... and they won't send out a tech to check the hardware.)

    Most of the drivers are available on the Dell Support website. Should also be on the Dell Driver that came with your M1530. There's also this.
