I had the same thing happen and I found out how to fix the problem through a phone call to microsoft. You need to edit your registry. I had installed Nero and I already had Easy Cd Creator. My cd rom drives showed the yellow exclamation point and I received "code 39" as my error when I tried to update my driver. Go to the Microsoft support website and look up article #314060. The instructions are simple, just don't forget to back up your registry before you make changes. Editing the registry can really screw your system up if you incorrectly modify a registry key. Please let me know if this works!
