When installing SP2 version, you possibly corrupted the drivers for the DVD. It is possible there are different drivers for the DVD between XP and XP (sp2). Go to the laptop mfg website and download the newest drivers for the DVD.

I recently installed a windows update and now my dvd rw drive is not detected. In the device manager there is a yellow icon for the dvd drive. I tried to update the driver but the device manager says no newer driver is available.
