    hi,

    i have a vaio vgn fs485b and i have a problem with my cdrom.
    my brother have uninstall many unused softwares, and i think that he have removed by mistake the cdrom driver or firmware.

    now, the cdrom is not recognized, and in the device manager list, i see a yellow bullet on the DVD/CD-ROM drive, on the line: sony dvd rw dw=q58a.

    can you tell me which driver/firmware do i need to reinstall? and where can i found it?

    thanks a lot

    bob
