My CD DVD drivers are corrupted, I can not reinstall, or burn any files. Can not even rebuild my laptop as its not reading any CD's. Can anybody help with where to get new drivers, or any general ideas???

Goto http://aumha.org/win5/a/xpcd.php#problems
See the second "problem" (read the caveats)
Run the provided registry patch

That should fix your problem (basically, a filter driver is missing or
non-operational, the registry patch will delete the filter drivers
references for your cdrom(s))


Basically, the reg file from above carries out the steps displayed at this
website
