I have an LG WH14NS40 internal bluray writer and it originally showed up as a dvd/cdrw drive. I restarted the computer a couple of times and it eventually was recognized as a bluray drive.

I recently unplugged the computer and now it is recognized as a dvd/cdrw again. Also the drive wont open and the light on the drive keeps flasing four times stops then flashes again in a constant loop. I tried unplugging and replugging in the drivewith the power and sata cable. I also uninstalled the windows driver in device manager and reinstalled under computer in device manager. My next thought was replacing the sata cable but i figured it wouldnt recognize the drive at all if it didnt work.

Any suggestions?

I fixed it. Apparently the face of the computer was pushing the eject button on the bluray drive while it was booting up. I used a rotary tool to remove some of the material and now it works fine.
