Operating Basics
Using optical disc drives
The full-size drive provides high-performance execution of CD/DVD-ROM
based programs. You can run 12 cm (4.72") CD/DVDs. An ATAPI interface
controller is used for CD/DVD-ROM operation. When the computer is
accessing a CD/DVD-ROM, an indicator on the drive glows.
Refer also to the Writing CD/DVDs on DVD Super Multi drive section for
precautions on writing to CD/DVDs.
Loading discs
To load CD/DVDs, follow the steps below.
1. Turn your computer on.
2. Gently hold the CD/DVD by the edges with its labeled facing up, and
insert it into the optical disc drive slot straight on slowly.
Inserting a CD/DVD
■ Use the WinDVD application to view DVD-Video discs.
■ An 8cm CD/DVD can be used with the external optical disc drive.
Gently push the CD/DVD until it is loaded automatically. Do not push it
forcibly or at an angle to the optical disc drive slot. This may cause damage
or adhesion of foreign matter on the surface of the CD/DVD. These
imperfections may prevent the drive from reading from or writing to it.
