CDRW Removes itself

[punkbassist19]

So, I've just reinstalled windows, and I am attempting to install world
of warcraft, everything is fine untill I hit disk 4, I put the disk in,
then about 5-10 min later it asks me to put in the same disk, and my
disk drive is not showing up in My computer and I cannot get to it at
all.(I have tested the disks in other systems with no problem) I get
the error messages:

Source: CDROM Error Code: 51
An error was detected on device \Device\CdRom0 during a paging
operation.

The device 'YAMAHA CRW2100E'
(IDE\CdRomYAMAHA_CRW2100E_________________________1.0N____\5&c21666e&0&0.1.0)
disappeared from the system without first being prepared for removal.

Anyone help me out with this?

First thing to try is changing the ribbon cable between drive and
motherboard.

All right so I did that, and decided to try my original cd rom as well,
the CDRW is working fine, but the CDROM shows up when I am booting up,
but does not appear in my computer.

All right, never mind it cut out again, and now there are no cd drives
showing up on my computer.
