I wonder if it was the moon phase or something. I had all of my cd/dvd
drives (3) in this machine do that this week. I did as you suggested.

In that situation, I normally do uninstall.  Just go to Device Manager,
uninstall the problem device and let Windows recognise again and re-instal
the driver for it.

For things like built in DVD drives, it's normally automatic once you
uninstall.
