Yeah, Device Manager shows the drive with the yellow exclamation mark, and
says no drivers installed. Before the attempted SP1 update it was fine so
I guess the install somehow trashed the drivers.
When I try to "Update Driver", it fails with an error message as follows:
"Found driver software but encountered an error whilst trying to install
it.
Roxio cdr4
System cannot find the file specified".
I believe the Roxio file is something to do with CD/DVD burning software,
and I know it is present in the drivers directory.
Does this help?

Did you try to update the drivers for the drive through device manager ?
