What driver were you expecting to find?

All DVD/CD drivers are included with Windows.

However, it is possible to get additional filters supplied with some software, maybe the game has installed one of those and it's faulty.

Or alternatively it may have installed a rootkit. Check it out with the RootkitRevealer (http://download.sysinternals.com/Files/RootkitRevealer.zip)

Does it read burned or retail CDs or retail DVDs?
I've just replaced my Lite-ON SOHW with their SATA 20x model because it wouldn't read any CDs, blank, burned or retail but worked fine with all DVDs.
