CD/DVD not recognized - Inspiron 2200
My Inspiron 2200 has a DVD/CD rom drive that just stopped working. It is not recognized when I go to Device Manager there is a yellow circle with an exclamation point. Drive is HL-DT-ST CDRW/DVD GCC4244. I tried updating drivers (no luck), I tried uninstalling and reinstalling (no luck), I tried updating my IDE controller (no luck). I thought the drive was bad so I got an external USB DVD and plugged it in. It also don't work. XP said new hardware and identified it but in device manager it had a yellow circle. HELP

In the Device Manager .........
Click on the (+) next to DVD/CD-ROM drives. Right-click the drive and select Properties.
Is there an Error Code (number) present?
