Windows doesn’t detect your DVD drive

Affects: Windows Vista/7

Description: Although your DVD drive appears in BIOS, it in rare cases could disappear from Windows 7, which of course means you can’t play DVDs

Solution: Run regedit and find  

 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ 

Find and delete the UpperFilters and LowerFilters entries, then reboot. If this doesn’t work, enter Disk Management and look for the drive letter of your DVD drive. Right-click that drive, then click Change Drive Letter and Paths. Change the drive letter to some other, unused letter, then reboot.
