Windows 7, where has my DVD Drive gone?

pauliom
Just had a problem burning a file to disc, when I rebooted and checked "my computer" the drive had vanished. After checking the Device Manager el al I couldn’t find any problems. Then I realised what was happening, it now only shows the drive if there is something in it to read! Gotcha!

    Also spotted this is an optional feature, \’hide drive\’ that you can turn off
