My laptop stopped detecting it's built in CD drive spontaneously. How do I fix it?
It's a recent purchase. I haven't even gotten my mail in rebate back yet but I live 300 mile away from where I bought it. It was a two day sale. I was very careful with it and the drive is operational all the drivers are up to date It worked until it stopped detecting my drive. I had used it the day before. It opens normally before Windows boots up and if it was open when Windows starts it will open and close normally except for when a program tries to eject a disc. If it is closed when Windows opens it will not open normally until it is restarted. It does not display a cd drive when I open My Computer I have tried System Restore multiple times. It seemed to work the first time only and only until I shut down my laptop. I have tried detecting new hardware, none is detected. I am at my wits end. Please help.
