Ugh, never take your CPU out.. I suspect your dvd drive isnt plugged in correctly given you experience when "cleaning" you cpu.

Ken is right! You might have inadvertently dislodged a cable or even worse caused some irreparable damage due to static electricity.
First step would be to boot into BIOS and check if the drive still shows up there.

But everything works well except DVD drive.Yes i tried it,it shows up.
Would it be the best to take it to the service?I still have warranty on it.

This reply is rather late. But i faced the same error "E:\ Application not found" when i clicked on DVD drive icon today 23 november 2015. I ran CCleaner--Registry---Scan for issues--Fix all selected isssues. And it solved the problem.
