This occured when I intalled WINDOWS 8 PRO
Click start control panel administration tools computer management device manager scroll down cd-dvd rom drives you might see a yellow question /exclamation mark ? ! or a red X right click to update driver
You might have to physically unplug the leads for this cd/dvd restart your computer then plug them back this should activate the found new hardware wizard
Optical drives are more forgiving.
Make
sure it has power (ejects). Check Device Manager in Safe Mode by pressing F8
during boot. Right click My Computer > Manage. Select Device Manager >
View > Show Hidden Devices. Now delete all DVD/CD-ROMs and reboot. Windows
will say "New Hardware Found" and install.
