Is there a driver somewhere to make my HP 8210e CD-Writer Plus work with my Vista O.S.?

If you have been to the HP site, and can't find one, chances are that it is not compatible with Vista. I have pitched a RW and a scanner (both HP) for lack of support. But you can try this to attempt finding one.
If you go in device manager, go in details for the device driver.
You will see a code like per example VEN_8086&DEV_27D8&SUBSYS...

The VEN code means vendor and the DEV code means device: in this case the vendor is 8086 and the device is 27D8.

Once you have the two codes, go to www.pcidatabase.com. Enter the two codes and you should get the name of your hardware. From there you can search for a driver download for your hardware.
