Windows does not see the drive. What only surprises does not present us with a computer. You go to bed and don't know if it will turn on tomorrow? or anywhere else? It used to worry me too. The most interesting thing is that the surprises are constantly different. At one fine moment, I suddenly discovered that the disk drive icon disappeared in my system in the My Computer folder. It's just that Windows doesn't see the drive. What to do? First you need to check the drive itself.

The drive tray itself slides out and accepts discs, which means that the problem is either:

1. in a train
2. in the drive
3. in the drive controller.

Most likely, the reason is in the drive itself. But it doesn't hurt to check.

If before that the drive worked fine, then let's try to do it.

If for some reason it is impossible to restore the system, then we check if our drive is visible in the BIOS.

If in BIOS drive is not detected, then we check the cable (cable) that connects the drive to the motherboard. If possible, replace it with a known working one.

I checked the drive with a working cable, but it is still not detected. Then we try to connect the drive to another computer to determine its performance.

If the drive is working, then enter " Device Manager» ( Start - Settings - Control Panel - System - Hardware - Device Manager) . Check at the bottom of the tab " General» in the window « Device Application » whether the device itself is turned on. If it is off, then turn it on through the same window (just select the entry " This device is in use (enabled) ».

Let's see if the entry contains " DVD and CD-ROM drives » our drive. And isn't it worth the record Exclamation point on a yellow background.

If there is an exclamation mark opposite the drive, then we try to remove the drive driver (double-click on the name of the drive, select the tab " Driver"and press the button" Delete"). We restart the computer.

After the reboot, the system should detect the drive itself and load the driver.

If the drive and the cable are working, then this should help, and if not, then most likely it will have to.

Let's try to load any bootable disk, having previously installed in BIOS boot from the CD drive. If the boot occurs and the disk opens, and Windows still does not see the disk drive, then we have a problem with the operating system. Here it is already necessary to first check the system for viruses, and then delve into the .

In the meantime, you can play in the casino for money. Maybe you'll get lucky.
