Disk Drives not recognized

XP shows a code 41 error on CDRW and DVDROM Drives on my Pavilion 360n.

Have reseated.

Windows update is not working either

This Code 41 is not a Windows Update issue and you may be better off posting to a
more appropriate NG.



Notes about Code 41 -



Windows successfully loaded the device driver for this hardware but cannot find the
hardware device. (Code 41)



Windows loaded the driver but cannot find the device. This error occurs with devices
because Plug and Play cannot detect the device. Use Device Manager to uninstall the
driver and then use the Add Hardware Wizard to reinstall it.

If the device was removed, uninstall the driver, install the device, and then click
Scan for hardware changes to reinstall the driver. If the hardware was not removed,
obtain a new or updated driver for the device.

If the device is a non-Plug and Play device, a newer version of the driver might be
needed. To install non-Plug and Play devices, use the Add Hardware wizard. Click
Performance and Maintenance on Control Panel, click System, and on the Hardware tab,
click Add Hardware Wizard.
