DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW Drive
Setting a Disc
1
Turn on the computer.
2
Press the eject button (A) and slowly pull out the tray.
3
Insert/Remove the disc.
To insert
Set the disc with the label side up and press the center of the disc until it clicks
in place.
To remove
Press on the center spindle (B) and carefully lift up the edge of the disc.
4
Close the tray.
Do not press the eject button.
NOTE
To remove a disc when the computer is powered off, insert a pointed object (e.g., the
bent-out tip of a paper clip, or the tip of a pencil or ballpoint pen) into the emergency
hole (A). Pushing it to the end allows the tray to come out. (The position of the emer-
gency hole depends on the drive.)
If the vibration of the drive is excessive, check the disc. If the disc is normal and is
inserted correctly, set [CD/DVD Drive Speed] to [Low] in the [Main] menu of the Setup
Utility ( page 61).
When using B's Recorder, select writing speed [8x] or less to minimize vibration.
For AutoPlay CD:
• If an AutoPlay CD does not start after the computer resumes from standby or hibernation, remove the disc from the
drive and then reinsert it after waiting 15 seconds.
• An AutoPlay CD may start during file access depending on the status of the disc.
When playing back video from a disc, playback may not be smooth in some conditions.
Power-saving mode
If the drive is not accessed for 30 seconds, the drive motor will automatically be shut down to reduce the power consumption.
When the drive is accessed again, the drive motor is turned on. In this case, reading of the disc data will take approximately
30 seconds.
