    I have an Asus M50Sa and recently my DVD drive disapeared from my computer. I looked into device management and they give me a Code 19 something about registry being incomplete or damaged.

    It happened last time and I fixed it by using system restore. But it seems it happens everytime I install something (thinks it's spybot)

    Anyone know how to fix this?
    If I have to reinstall the driver where do I find it and how do I install it?

    I have vista 64bit if that helps anything
