Using the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM Drive to Install or Run
Programs
All the necessary software to use your computer and connect to the Internet is already
installed on your PowerBook. (You only need to use the PowerBook CD that came with your
computer if you are having problems and need to reinstall system software.) However, if you
purchased additional software with your PowerBook, you can install or run the programs using
the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM expansion bay drive.
If you have older software that comes on floppy disks, contact the software manufacturer to
see if the software is available on a CD-ROM disc or purchase a third-party expansion bay or
external floppy disk drive (such as an LS120/SuperDisk) for your PowerBook from your Apple-
authorized dealer or The Apple Store (www.apple.com/store).
To install or use programs from a CD or DVD disc, follow these steps:
1 With the computer turned on, press the Open button on the outside of the drive.
2 Pull the tray all the way open.
