XP Pro won't recognise DVD Drives

Hey Guy's. I recently upgraded from XP Home to Pro, but there's one problem it won't recognise my DVD Drives, XP Home recognised them, BIOS recognises them, but as soon as I open My Computer - NOTHING. The copy of Pro is full legit and it's driving me mad, any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
