My Win10 install, 64 bit, (over Win7 64 bit) runs OK. But Device Manager doesn't see the Optical Drive. The drive was "G" under Win7 and functioning.
Tried the "New Hardware" tab several times and looked at the BIOS. Nothing seems amiss but the drive is not there.
Can anyone explain this?

Thanks for moving the message.
I haven't looked at the BIOS in a while so am re-accustoming myself to what is where. Also on the road for next two wees. But first time through I saw the 3 HDDs but no Optical. Hoping I'm just looking in wrong tab!
