Go to device a manager click view > hidden devices & see if they show there. May be just an issue with the driver for the MB in your PC.
If they show there delete them reboot and see if they show up.
Also verify they are showing in the BIOS.

Hi
That's one thing that really bugs me about Windows 10.
With Windows 7 you could do a repair install, that would cause your settings to revert to default, but it would retain all of your software and files in working condition.
I think that they should have an option to do that in Windows 10.
You can always do a reset if it doesn't solve you problem, but it always seemed to work in Windows 7.
Anyway, now that you have everything working make a System Image so that if something dies you can get your computer back up and running quickly.
I use EaseUS TODO backup and recovery.
It's free and works well with Windows 10.
You can literally backup your system with a few clicks of the mouse.
Because I keep my Windows drive small, with all my software installed on another drive I can create or restore a backup in around 10 to 15 minutes.

A solution from a MS site when your DVD/Cd has disappeared
Navigate with RegEdit to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
And remove the values from UpperFilters and LowerFilters
