MY CD ROM DRIVE DOES NOT APPEAR UNDER MY COMPUTER ALL OF A SUDDEN. WHEN I GO
TO DEVICE MANAGER, IT IS REFLECTING WITH A YELLOW QUESTION MARK. IT THEN
GUIDES ME TO UN INSTALL AND RE - INSTALL. THAT DOES NOT HELP - KEEPS ON
SAYING - WINDOWS CANNOT LOAD THE DRIVER FOR THIS HARDWARE. THE DRIVER MAY BE
CORRUPTED OR MISSING. (CODE 39)

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE ASSIST ON HOW TO FIX THIS ERROR??
