problems with cdrom loading driver (code 39)

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

I have recently lost my c/dvdrom from my system
when i try to reinstall the drive it comes up with a message that the driver is either corrupt or missing (code39)
When I try to update the driver the same message appears

I tried to reinstall the original cd rom that came with the pc and got exactly the same message
Any advice gratefully received
