This problem is caused by itunes. Apple insert a registry key below the cd rom driver that inserts the extra driver. Microsoft know about this problem but have not blamed apple. See this technote http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320553/
After you remove the key, restart your computer your driver will work but itunes will not. Re-import the key to re-enable itunes. You will have your CD / DVD for a while. Then repeat the problem where nescessary.
I have the release version of vista ultimate and this is the case with mine.
for those too lazy to click on the link here is the excerpt from microsoft site. Remeber editing the registry is a dangerous thing to do unless you know what you are doing.
best of luck

Method 1: Remove the registry entry
Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.
Note If you had installed multiple CD-writing software products on your computer, you need to uninstall the software products before you remove the registry keys.1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.
3. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Cl@ss/{4d36e965-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}
4. On the File menu, click Export.
5. In the File name box, type savedkey, and then click Save.
6. Click the REG_MULTI_SZ data type UpperFilters, and then click Delete on the Edit menu. When you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes.
Note If this data type is missing, go to Method 2.
7. Click the REG_MULTI_SZ data type LowerFilters, and then click Delete on the Edit menu. When you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes.
8. Quit Registry Editor, and then restart the computer.
