    just got my fe790 2 days ago..
    there was a whole load of bloatware so i was unistalling it 1by 1..
    i removed most of the stuff.. n the computer was workin smoothly, but today i was in My computer, n i cudnt see the DVD drive there.. so i went in to device manager n there is a yellow exclamation mark next to the pioneer drive.

    when i tried to update the driver.. it says that the latest driver has been installed.. went to sony hardware diagnostics.. it says there is no drive.
