Another option you can try – I notice this works for many users – involves removing and reinstalling the IDE/ATAPI drivers. Launch Device Manager again, click the View menu then click Show hidden devices. Expand IDE/ATAPI Controllers then uninstall each of the following:
ATA Channel 0
ATA Channel 1
Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller
There might be multiple entries listed for ATA Channel 0, 1 and PCI IDE Controller; uninstall all of them then restart your computer. Windows 10 will detect the drive then reinstall it.

Hi Ken and Pete
The above help from you both seems to have sorted the no disk found,
I had seen it as a remedy(maybe) about 3 days ago but was scared to try it.
with the help of you both and others on here I have learned a lot of how to get round my computer over the last few days.
