Windows Vista doesn't detect my CD-ROM drive, what can I install or uninstall to get Vista to see my CD-ROM drive?

If you tried uninstalling your optical drive using the Device Manager and restarted your computer and your drive still doesn't appear in Vista, shut down your computer. Next, disconnect the drive from the motherboard, start your computer, and then shut it down after it completely boots up Vista. Shut down your computer again, reconnect your drive and then start your computer. Vista should detect your drive and reinstall the device drivers.
