Laptop’s buggered again.

I can tell. It’s quite easy to tell because it doesn’t seem to register having a DVD drive any more.

This presents a problem for doing most obvious initial fix - reinstalling Windows.

FYI for any geeks with suggestions, I can’t find it in the Device Manager, or in My Computer. Trying to go to the drive directly fails. Restarting didn’t work. The drive seems to still be powered and spins up discs. (Since it ejects, flashes lights and spins the disks) I don’t see it in BIOS, but can’t remember if I ever did…

In other words… fuck.
