I do not believe the OP stated it was factory installed.  Just that it previously worked, but does not now.  Same issue I am having.  (Felt compelled to reply as no one has bothered to actually solve this problem, yet.)

Re: How to enable the blu ray /dvd player to play blu ray disc?

As far as I know, at this point, there is no free way to do this through Windows.  This is primarily due to the requirement of the encryption keys being needed.  ArcSoft Total Media Theater seems to be the best program on Windows for BluRay, but it's priced at $99 (except the 15-day free trial).
