I need HELP with a problem - see below... Sorry I'm long winded!!

[Guest stainless45]

Windows XP Pro - SP 2

 

Windows successfully loaded the device driver for this hardware but cannot

find the hardware device. (Code 41)

 

This is the code error that I get when I look at the properties of my newly

installed DVD burner / reader. This is an USB wired external unit. I got

the same message when I purchased an internal model. I took that one back

and purchased the USB one - since ALL my USB items work! I've installed /

un-installed multiple times, the PC fires up and plug & play "sees" the DVD

player using USB, but then it dissapears!

The DVD player is powered up, and will except a CD - but just sits there.
