^^ what he said.
If its not showing in the BIOS then its probably a lose cable and although installing new drivers for it would be fun and exciting... it wont help the BIOS find the drive.
Chances are its the power cable if it wont eject your dvd... If you open it up and the cable is secure... then try using a different molex connector...
