I don't have a Dell XPS 630, but I do have a 650i motherboard, and have had this problem as well.
If you're willing to do without Autorun, this may work for those with the blinking LED, it did for me.
Start>Run>Regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->SYSTEM->CurrentControlSet->Services->Cdrom and change AutoRun to 0 this will disable Auto Insert Notification.

Cool, but can you set the lights and there is no problem?
Or is all the problems with vista users?

The problems are not just with Vista users. There have been no Vista related problems talked about in these forums. There are Vista problems of course, but NONE of the issues that you read about on these forums about the 630i are being caused by any operating system. XP users have had the same problems.
Before someone posts an ignorant response such as, "I have XP and have had no problems", I will speak first. I have Vista and have had no problems. In fact, I love Vista for the most part. There is no reason to fear Vista. In fact, DirectX 10 is pretty awesome in the games that I play.
