I had problems with my notebook after the install of 7 and found out i needed a driver from intel for the chipset to make the drive work as it should. It was called the "Intel matrix storage controller" which fixed all my problems for the ICH9 chipset which is in this notebook.
What is the chipset of your motherboard. ??

Sorry it was just a thought, i hope you get it sorted.
Same prob here, only way I could install 7 was this:
Install Windows 7 From USB Drive/Pen Drive
worked perfectly but its unacceptable that we have to do this.
I just updated my motherboard's chipset to Windows 7 drivers...... No luck here either.
Is anyone else as frustrated as I am? It has been four days that my system has been without a CD ROM drive. I cannot load my Office 2007 or any of my other programs that I cannot download from the net. I think I'll install my new Lightscribe DVD burner and see if Win7 picks it up.......
