Hi,

The Asrock z87 Extreme Bios recognises the blu ray drive (PIONEER BDR-209DBK), but I can't make it boot. Nothing happens, but a message that no device was found ("Can'tfind any devicew"), but than in the BIOS the blu ray is listed and I think I correctly selected it in the boot sequence.(Tried it with an Windows 8.1 OEM as well as an Linux Mint 17 DVD).
I tried different configurations in the BIOS. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. ... In the end it just says "Reboot and Select proper Boot device. Or insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key"

Thank you in advance for any help with this

The Linux MInt 17 disc has allready been used succesfully several times.

How can I install drivers for the Blu Ray as I still have no OS installed?

Yes, it works perfectly well with an old DVD drive. I just hope the Blu Ray is not broken.
