Try this if the optical drives are not appearing in either My Computer or Device Manager :-
Start, Run, type regedit and navigate to registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}. Highlight it and in the right pane, find the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters values. Highlight each one in turn, right click and delete them. Close regedit and restart the computer.
If in doubt backup the registry first (Win98) or make a restore point in WinME and WinXP.
