Answer 1

you can download the drivers from either the manufacturer of the laptop, or of the cd/dvd drive . Use a hardware detection software to determine the make of hardware.

Answer 2

in the journey that your laptop no longer common stress is 3.5", it won't fit on your workstation considering the fact that those tend to be 2.5" drives; and laptop inner DVD/CD drives are too huge to slot in a working laptop or workstation besides.

Answer 3

please provide the computer model, and brand.
operating system and if possible right click my computer and go to properties, hardware, device manager, look on the list and see if it gives you a dvd model or brand name.
feel free to email with the info.

Answer 4

Buy a new copy of XP
Once that is installed you can download the drivers you are missing (if any) from the interweb.
