I have 2 dvd drives a Compaq DVD-ROM dvd-116 and an HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-5163D USB Device.
I rolled back Windows media player from version 11 to version 9. Thats when I noticed that both DVD's weren't working.
The message I got is that "the driver is corrupted or missing. (Code 39)
The driver is a microsoft driver version 5.1.2535.0 Date: 7/1/2001.
I'm running windows XP Home Edition.
I've spent 2 very frustrating days trying to find an updated driver.

Welcome to Windrivers Im1sneakysnake

You won't find one... actually the problem is fixed by editing the registry. The instructions are here (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/270008) Yes I know it blames easy cd, but a number of things can cause this problem - rolling back WMP is obviously one of them!
