Missing DVD drive device driver on installation

Hi,

I am trying to install Windows Server 2008 x64 R2 (I have the supporting hardware for x64), but I keep getting an error saying the device driver for DVD drive is missing.

I downloaded the driver from Dell's site (my PC vendor) and put it on my USB pen and then pointed the installation to this, but the installation could not see the files, just the folder structure. The DVD drive is PBDS DVD+- RW DH-16 W1S ATA Device.

This issue is pretty much the same as this one: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/For...d-a3eeae671a5e

How can I get by this issue?
Thanks
