1) Download drivers from this side or use these links

ftp://ftp.sigmadesigns.com/HollywoodPlus/HP_2_4k1.zip
ftp://ftp.sigmadesigns.com/HollywoodPlus/HP_2_4k2.zip

2) Extract files to a temporary folder
3) Run Setup.exe

Thanx for replying..but you dont quite seem to understand my problem. the application (setup.exe) works fine to install. but how good is a dvd-station if my computer cant find a correct driver (and dont know that it is a dvd-card I put in my pc). So I got the application but everytime i rebot my computer it says it has found a new device and want the drivers..and i dont have any for windows XP (only win95-98) thats my problem..the setup.exe only installs the application, no drivers..or am I stupid?! I understands if you dont have the time to care any more..but i yould be glad if you did

Hmm.. Well, I've heard that some people got it worknig with H+ drivers.
Anyway, you may also want to try Win2K WDM drivers.

PS: found an interesting forum section on this topic
http://miataru.computing.net/windowsxp/wwwboard/forum/1325.html
Particularly response 24 and 29 were really interesting

I just figured out that you didn't install drivers before you installed DVD station. smile
Ok, those two links I posted.. First one is a driver disk, second one is an application disk.
So, when Windows prompts you to install drivers (and before you run Setup.exe) choose Search for a suitable driver and mark Specify the location (point to the folder where you extracted the files). Should work.
Anyway, take a look on the forum site I posted. It seems that some guys managed to fix your problem using WDM drivers.
