The computer does not detect the optical drive

If the computer does not detect the optical drive, the device driver software may be missing or corrupted.
If you suspect that the optical drive is not being detected, verify that the optical drive is listed in the
Device Manager utility.
1. Remove any discs from the optical drive.
2. Click Start and type device manager in the Start Search box.
As you type, search results are listed in the pane above the box.
3. In the Device Manager window, click the plus sign (+) next to DVD/CD-ROM drives, unless a minus
sign (-) is already showing. Look for an optical drive listing.
If the drive is not listed, install (or reinstall) the device driver as instructed in the section "A device
driver must be reinstalled."
