you may also try this:
http://www.laptops-drivers.com/toshi...re-driver.html
but at your own risk...one of the comments hint that it might work with other vendors' laptop containing the same drive
tell me when you plan to throw it though :p
edit: wait a bit, I've found drivers of this thing from Toshiba and dell...so maybe hp is around the corner, btw..did you check if the drive is working at all? (by booting from a cd?)

Woot!
Now the question is, is the music good enough to go through all that trouble for? :p
