I was trying to use my CD/DVD combo drive but all of a sudden the drive was not recognized by the computer. I went to My Computer and the drive was not listed where it used to. I have tried to load CDs but they don't seem to be recognized by the computer. When I insert the disk the CD-ROM light is orange but then thats all it does. I need help and don't know what to do.
