 It is an HP DVDWBD TS-LB23L. I have deleted the device in Device mgr but Win7 64bit reports it is unable reinstall the driver. Message &quot;Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted of missing (39)&quot;. I have tried HP support looking for drivers but no luck. I have other Win 7 64 systems available. I see a CDROM.sys file but am unsure if this will solve &nbsp;my problem or how to go about it.
