Hi,

Try boot into safe mode by pressing F8 key during boot and login as
administrator.
Go to device manager, double click the DVD/CD-Rom drives, right click on the
DVD-rom and click uninstall, click OK. Exit all windows and then reboot.
After reboot, windows should found new hardware and install the proper
drivers for the DVD-rom. Go to device manager and check to ensure it works
properly.

Hope it helps.

Peter
