ATAPI errors Trouble With My CDRW/DVD Drive

I have suddenly developed a problem with my Samsung CDRW /DVD 352N Combo
Drive.

The problem initially started by my drive not being able to read Mixed
Content Data DVD's. (I could play CD's etc).
Now I can't even access my drive and when I try to reinstall the drive after
uninstalling it from the system manager on reboot the machine Instead of
identitfying it as a Samsung CDR / DVD 352 N the computer is identifying a

SAMQULG CDRU/ DVD QM 352L



In the event viewer I get constant ATAPI errors , Event ID 9 under system
( This error message is the most regular one I get in my event viewer)
however earlier the initial symptoms and warnings and error messages that I
see in my event viewer for this particular problem are listed below)

Can someone help me solving this problem. would be appreciated.

Time: 4:46:18 PM
User: N/A
Computer: HOME
Description:
Windows cannot access the file F:\Digit.exe for one of the following
reasons: there is a problem with the network connection, the disk that the
file is stored on, or the storage drivers installed on this computer; or
the disk is missing. Windows closed the program Digit because of this
error.

Program: Digit
File: F:\Digit.exe

The error value is listed in the Additional Data section.
User Action
1. Open the file again. This situation might be a temporary problem that
corrects itself when the program runs again.
2. If the file still cannot be accessed and
- It is on the network, your network administrator should verify that
there is not a problem with the network and that the server can be
contacted.
- It is on a removable disk, for example, a floppy disk or CD-ROM, verify
that the disk is fully inserted into the computer.
3. Check and repair the file system by running CHKDSK. To run CHKDSK, click
Start, click Run, type CMD, and then click OK. At the command prompt, type
CHKDSK /F, and then press ENTER.
4. If the problem persists, restore the file from a backup copy.
5. Determine whether other files on the same disk can be opened. If not, the
disk might be damaged. If it is a hard disk, contact your administrator or
computer hardware vendor for further assistance.
