I have just encountered  this issue with one of my customer today (08/14/2015) and the first fix i attempted worked. Therefore in this guide; i will only be listing the fix which has worked for me.

The issue was that after upgrading to Windows 10 from Windows 7 on a ASUS Mini PC – The DVD Drive was not showing up in My Computer and the Device Manager also did not indicate any unknown devices.

To fix the issue; i created a new registry key for the drive controller and then rebooted the PC. However, before you do the registry method; make sure you back up your registry settings.

To continue; follow the steps below:

1. Hold windows key and press R

2. Type regedit in  the run dialog and click OK

3. Navigate to the following path

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\atapi

5. Type Controller0 and click OK or press Enter.

6. Now right click Controller0 and choose new dword (32-bit) value
