My laptop has suddenly decided it doesn't recognise the CD drive. Can anyone help please?

What brand-model are we talking about here? How old? You can try downloading the driver from the manufacturer's website to see if it will kick start it. If that doesn't work, it may be that the CD drive is shot.
