    Disk drive missing


    Would you know how to get my disk drive to start showing up and reading disk again? It stopped when I installed Windows 7.

    I am guessing the Optiarc DVD is it. I went into properties and looked at its status and it gave me
    "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)"

    You could try the previous driver as before. If not look in the Drivers section in the forum. At the top of the driver section you will see lots of driver resources. :)
