    DVD Drive gone?


    I was here a couple of days ago about windows 7. I upgraded to windows 7 it works fine :P

    Now the only problem is my DVD drive keeps disappearing :|
    I did a system restore once and it worked fine now I go to use it and it is gone.. again.

    I went to asus's downloads and couldn't find the driver for an optical drive. Please help I don't want to system restore again because I just installed a lot of programs.

    -Asus Notebook
    -G51Vx
    -Windows 7 x64

    Hi go back to the Asus site and get everything that there is for your machine, meaning everything that is there.
    Download and install.
