Your Dell computer came with either a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive. Both drives read
audio CDs and a variety of other CD formats. The DVD-ROM drive also plays digital
versatile discs (DVDs).
To use a disc in the drive, follow these steps.
1. Press the open/close button on the front of the drive to open the disc tray.
2. Place the disc in the center of the disc tray with the label side facing up (see
Figure 4-6).
.
3. Close the tray by pressing the open/close button or by lightly pressing the front
edge of the tray (the tray will automatically close).
NOTE: High-speed CD-ROM drives spin the CD at a very high rotational speed
and may be noisy. If a CD has printing on only half of the disk, or if there is a
slight imbalance in the CD, the imbalance is greatly magnified by the high speed
and the noise is louder. This effect is inherent in the high-speed technology and
does not indicate a problem with the drive.
When using a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive, follow these guidelines:
Never use damaged, broken, or deformed discs.
Do not press the open/close button while the computer is accessing a disc.
Keep the disc tray closed when not using the drive.
For more information on using your drive, refer to the drive documentation that came
with your system.
