DVD have trouble when upgrade BIOS

Hi all,

My Dell Presision M4500 service tag: <ADMIN NOTE: Service tag removed per privacy policy> has a trouble when i upgrade BIOS version.

The first BIOS version is A04 when i upgrade it to A08 bypass A05,A06,A07( i didn't install A05,A06,A07 ) .

The windows 7 didn't detech my DVD RW .

After i put the DVD disk to DVDRW drive and restart the laptop, when the Windows 7 start, i can see the DVD drive in My Computer.

When remove the DVD and restart laptop, Windows 7 can not detech it.

Please help !!!!

Thanks so much!!

Sorry about that here is the direct link ;
