Hi,
My CD and DVD drivers are missing! They won't show on
the my computer menu or anything. It says they are
properly working but when I try to install or add
hardware I'm given this message: Windows cannot load the
device driver for this hardware. The driver may be
corrupted or missing. (Code 39)
I've tried to put the drivers CD in but of course it
will not work because they are missing. What can I do?

This should help:

Another option if you are registry savvy:

CD-ROM Access Is Missing and Messages Cite Error Code 31, Code 32, Code 19,
or Code 39 After You Remove Easy CD Creator in Windows XP

Please set a restore point before trying either method.
