There is no driver other than the ones that are included with the XP OS. Optical drives never require a driver when used in any Windows OS beginning with Windows 95 and up. It's a plug and play device and there are no "found new hardware" message when installing an optical drive.

Is the drive showing in My Computer and Device Manager?

In Device Manager, is the drive flagged as having a problem? Reported working ok by Device Manager?

Has it ever worked?

Please state what the problem is and include some details.
