DVD/CDROM detecting as removable storage! help..

It's me again, I did a zero fill and installed a fresh WINDOWS XP and everything worked till' I went to install drivers from my DVD/CD rom drive. It's :E but its under "removable storage"? Does anyone know how to fix this? Please help me, thanks..

*edit: I ask this because when I put in the motherboard driver cd, it pops up a Error message: The application failed to initialize properly (0xc00000006).

Could some help.. thank you so very much if you can.
