Default Restoring corrupted drivers

The driver for my CD/DVD drive has been corrupted. I can download the driver but the update driver utility can't (or is being prevented from) finding it. I'm about ready to blow this machine up and start over. Any suggestions?

I kind of need the drive in order to fix the underlying issues.

OH...and System Restore has been rendered useless as well.

Have you tried going into your device manager, uninstall the DVD drive and rebooting?

Multiple times. The bad driver reloads when I reboot. Even into safe mode.
