Try uninstalling them from Device Manager, then rebooting and let Windows find and install "New Hardware".If that fails, try from the Registry edit .
hen you have a Registry error, which often happens with XP.
Follow these steps outlined earlier in this thread,
Start Registry Editor (Start, Run and type in regedit then click O.K)
Locate the UpperFilters value under the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
Locate the LowerFilters value under the same key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
On the Edit menu, click Delete, and then click OK.
Quit Registry Editor.
NOTE: After you remove the Upperfilters value and the Lowerfilters value, if you notice lost functionality in a particular program, such as CD recording software, you may need to reinstall that software.
Warning: The methods discussed below require you to make direct changes to the Windows registry. Due to the importance of the registry in the working of your Windows computer, it is essential that you act very careful while making this edits. For safety, it is recommended that you back up the registry before proceeding. To make a registry backup, you may either use the Windows Registry Editor or a third-party, advanced registry tool.

2. Open Start menu, select Run, type regedit, and then press Enter to open the Registry Editor window.
3. Navigate to the following registry entry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965- E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
4. In the right-pane, right-click on UpperFilters and delete it.
5. Confirm your decision when a confirmation message box is displayed.
Note: Do not delete UpperFilters.bak
6. Next, right-click on LowerFilters and delete it.

Note: Do not delete LowerFilters.bak
8. Restart your system.
9. Reinstall the CD recording and writing programs and try to use them again.
To prevent error code 41 and other error messages that are generated due to registry problems, it is recommended that you perform regular preventive maintenance of the registry. Problems in the registry usually occur due to the accumulation of invalid, obsolete, and other junk information within it.
