The only suggestion I can offer would be to go through the troubleshooting steps at the link below and see if that resolves the problem for you:
Your CD or DVD drive is not recognized by Windows or other programs - Microsoft Support
Start with Methods, 4, 5 and 6 first.
Be alert for scammers posting fake support phone numbers and/or email addresses on the community.
