How Do I Fix A Code 41 Error?

I have a Liteon 485S CD-Rom and I get a Code 41 error (Windows loaded the device driver for the hardware but can't find the hardware device.) I have another computer that is exactly like it and I don't have this problem. I'm basically dead in the water because I can't load my Wireless hub software to access the Internet to download anything to fix the problem. Please help me!!

    Are you using the same CD reader on both? If not, try switching the readers and see if the problem moves. If it is an external drive and a usb device, make sure another device works in the port. A thumb drive is a good test since they do not normally need a driver. If it is an internal drive, make sure that the jumpers on both the hard drives and the cd reader are set the same. Also if internal get a replacement cable. I think that somewhere in this process you will be able to isolate the problem.

    The CD readers are the same. I did take the one out (good computer) and try it in the other one9bad computer) but had the same error. The other CD (bad computer) worked fine in the good computer so I know the CD is good. I'll try the cables next.
