Hello,

Is the drive detected in My Computer or in the Device Manager?

If detected in Device Manager uninstall the device and restart Windows.

Try deleting the filters using the manual fix from the site below.

If the drive is not detected by Windows then boot the system into BIOS.

In BIOS make sure that the drive is being recognized.
