CD/DVD Drive not responding

My laptop did an update on Friday but now my CD/DVD drive is not responding.
The system says that the drive is working correctly but it's not. The light
used to flash when the drive was working but now it's not doing anything. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

When you open MyComputer do you see the cd drive icon? If not, try
Doug Knox's fix.

Restore Dvd/Cd drives to Explorer.
