CD/DVD drive not appearing in Device manager is misconfiguration in the BIOS. Open up your BIOS hitting the F2, Delete key or whatever key you manufacture tells you just before Windows boots. See if the device is listed in the BIOS. If the information about the drive has been entered in manually, try changing the detection to "Automatic."
* Another reason for failure of a device to show up in Device Manager, is the BIOS is not up to date. Go to your manufacturer's site, and update the BIOS. This can be a tricky procedure so you might want to exhaust other possibilities first.
* Another reason for failure to show up in device manager, is a virus. Do a virus scan or better yet, do one online for free at any of the major companies. By doing it online you will most likely bypass any hiding the virus is doing from you anti-virus program. If neither of these work for U let me know...........Good Luck!!!!!!!!!
