CD DVD drive getting error code 39

Question

I have a new Dell 1525 with vista. The cd/dvd drive shows in the device manager and properties is giving the following error:

Drive:TSST corp DVD+-RW TS-L632H ATA Device

Windows could not load device driver for
this hardware. The driver may be corrupted
or missing (code 39).

Drive does not show in my computer.

I tried to reload the driver from the built in web search with no luck.

Still got the same error.

What to do next?

I just had this happen to my Inspiron Laptop.  Skybird directed me to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060/EN-US/ which solved the problem.  I have XP, so it might not work for Vista.   Good Luck!

I have an Inspiron 1720 with the same cd/dvd player and the same error code 39.  I tried the solution and it worked.  I did not have the upper filters so I only deleted the lower filters. Thanks
