My CD/DVD burner has stopped working, in the device manager, it says that the driver is missing or corrupt. I purched an external DVD burner, that is plug and play but with no luck, same problem!! What XP driver do i have to install to make it work?? where can I get it from. I have the windows XP disk, but it obviously isnt going to help me! I have tried everything, and even tried to driver detective, but the internet wouldn't process the payment!!! Please Help!!!

USB Mass storage devices and optical drives do not require drivers.

IDE/Atapi optical drives do not require drivers.

XP will auto-detect, if not you have a hardware problem...............
