Connecting the CD-ROM Drive

You can use the optional PCGA-CD51 CD-ROM drive with your
notebook computer. If you use the optional PCGA-CD51 CD-ROM drive
when your computer is running on battery power, the battery life will be
shorter. The CD-ROM drive draws power from the computer through a
PC card.
Procedures for connecting the CD-ROM drive may vary, depending on the CD-ROM drive.
See the manual that came with your CD-ROM drive for more information on use.
To play an audio CD in the optional PCGA-CD51 CD-ROM drive with your notebook
computer, your computer's settings must be set properly. You can check the settings
as follows:
1) Click the Start button, select Settings, and click Control Panel.
2) Click the Multimedia icon.
3) Click the CD tab and make sure the "Enable digital CD audio for this CD-ROM device"
box is checked. When this box is checked, your notebook computer's settings are correct for
playing an audio CD in the PCGA-CD51 CD-ROM drive.
To connect the CD-ROM drive
You can connect a PCGA-CD51 CD-ROM drive while the computer is on, unless you want to
