    DVD drive only works when scan for new hardware


    for some reason the DVD drive only shows after i scan for new hardware

    for example, i can turn on the computer now, and it doesn't see the second DVD drive, just the first one. but the minute i scan for new hardware, it pops up.
    but if i restart, its gone again? what's up with that?

    In diskmanagement when it shows has it a drive letter assigned to it? If not assign 1 (right click).
