If your time is worth more then a few pennies an hour, it would be much cheaper to buy a new CD-ROM drive. They run $20-$30 new and for not much more you can get a burner.
If you really want to learn to write drivers, there are probably much easier ways to learn. You should start with something you have specs on. You should also buy a good book, which would, of course, cost more then a new CD-ROM drive. You'd also want to buy the DDK.

ok, thats probably a better way to go, cus i have time, but i dowanna buy a $200 program just for one cd drive. then theres a book. i'd like to know how to write drivers, but i found a pci driver builder, and everything else is pci. unless i could get a copy of the ddk free. but i doubt anyone would be willing to give it to me. it was free, i just didn't know about it then. unless someone finds an ide device driver program, then i;'ll just let it go.
a 56X cd drive for sale. drivers upto mellenuim edition!!!
