"The Symantec eraser control driver" error in Device Manager

Hi, I'm using Norton Internet Security 2012 (Windows 7 64-bit). And I'm getting this error in device manager. When I click on 'Symantc Eraser Control Driver",  It says, "This device is not present, is not working properly or doesn't have all its driver installed. (Code 24)"

 

I can't even update its driver or start the service for that matter. Help me?
