Using optical media drives
The illustrations in this section might differ slightly from your drive, but
operation is the same for all optical media drives. The fullsize drive
provides highperformance execution of CD/DVDROMbased programs.
You can run either 12 cm (4.72") or 8 cm (3.15") CD/DVDs without an
adaptor. An ATAPI interface controller is used for CD/DVDROM
operation. When the computer is accessing a CD/DVD, an indicator on
the drive glows.
Use the WinDVD 4 application to view DVDVideo discs.
