THE SOLUTION!!!
System Does Not Detect Dvd/cdrom Drive
Guys, if you don't mind all the suggestions are failed in exclusion of the hardware problems , If the hardware is placed correctly, cables connected, everything alright but the explorer windows does not display your CD/DVD Drive, it means you updated your computer ( ONLY IN THE CASE OF VISTA ).
First of all, all the vista users, listen carefully; these big companies are advertising Microsoft's new alluring but an Incomplete OS, THE Windows Vista.
IT is incomplete, all vista users will face this problem if they update their computer using the unwanted windows update program which is a headache crap, Update only the graphic drivers and other hardware drivers leaving all those Microsoft Updates.
Try uninstalling the updates, this happened with me too, I uninstalled them but no change took place, You try it maybe it works...
Go to "Control Panel".
Switch to "Classic View" using the pane on the left side.
Open "Programs And Features"
Click on "View Installed Updates" on the left pane.
Uninstall all the updates, the more they are gone, the better your system is. BUT still there will be some updates which will not be uninstalled.
VISTA USERS, TRY REINSTALLING your OS-VISTA OR BACKING IT UP IF YOU GOT IT THROUGH A COMPUTER MANUFACTURER LIKE HP, DELL, SONY, LENOVO, COMPAQ ETC.
OTHERWISE THERE IS NO WAY OUT, you NEED TO BE A MEMBER OF COUNTERFIET FOR REINSTALLING THE OS.

FOR XP Users:
The only problem which can be caused it a harware problem, nothing else to say about it.
