It is not a driver, it is firmware. Usually firmware has to be installed via a different Application. the OS should recognize your DVD drive/burner without need for a driver.
Your not alone with the Vista problems. I'm going to send you to a Microsoft site that will walk you through changing your registry that should fix the problem. HERE.
Are you saying the bios detects the drive, but when you go to My Computer you cant see the drive listed? If so, Right click on My computer and in the menu select 'manage', In the Computer management window select removable media and activate the drive. It will then show in My computer, and be able to read/write cd's/dvd/s. If this does NOT work, then update the firmware for the drive. A lot of times when you buy a new drive, the firmware on it is out of date and the manufacturer has a new firmware out for it to fix computability issues with the collage of hardware thats out there.
