Hi: very much appreciate some help to overcome the following problem on my PC with XP service pak 2. I have two CD units - one for ready only (Creative CD5233E-N)and one read and write(Sony CRX210E-1). Somehow the MS generic driver version 5.1.5235.0 has become disabled and I don't know how to re-enable it. The two drives are recognized as being installed under system information but the list show an alert icon opposite both. I tried finding the appropriate drivers at the mfr's websites but they are not listed as being "current" models. Thanks for anyone's guidance and solution. Do I need to use a DOS disk approach with MSCDEXE and/or an .inf and or extract a file from the driver.cab location and if this latter is the way to go, how do I do that and identify the driver file I need
