Hi, My CD-ROM icon has suddenly disappeared. It's not coming in Device Manager too. It's also plugged well and there is no error in wires. So I think this has happened by virus. So what I should do for taking back my CD-ROM icon? Tell me some tricks by "regedit" or "gpedit" or by any other source. I will be gratful to you for this kind act.

Regards,

Qasim Ali.

Have you looked in Disk Management? Does the drive show in POST or in the BIOS?
