You didn't say whether the CD works or not, so I'll offer two choices.
If it doesn't, then I'd delete it in Device Manager, and restart. Windows should detect it, and install the correct driver.
If it does:
That seems to be a fairly common occurence if someone installs Itunes. Seems like it will play CD's, but not data disks.
Stopping Itunes resolves the issue, though.
