I lost my dvd drive

[addiakogiannis]

Yo guys I have a serious issue, I am running windows xp pro and after installing the latest version of anydvd I "lost" my dvd drive. I tryed to go back to a previus restore point but it didnt help. I was forced to format my laptop, and I need to install anydvd again but I am obviously afraid. What do you suggest?

Provided it's not a hardware failure, chances are you had other programs conflicting with anydvd. In the future should that happen again (not now), ensure you follow these steps (especially step 4, which requires you to post information)
