Playing Back And Retrieving Data From Discs; How To Remove A Disc; The Optical Drive As Boot Drive - Medion MD 8818 Instruction Manual

Playing back and retrieving data from
discs
Your PC is able to playback and to retrieve Audio CDs, DVD
Movies and Data discs.
After loading the disc your operating system will open a selection
window with different options for playback.
If your operating system doesn't open the selection window you
still have the possibility of the access via the explorer or "My
Computer".

How to remove a disc

1. Pull the eject button (Diagram reference, C2) at the front of
the optical drive to open the drawer.
2. Remove the disc and store it in the cover in a safe place.
Note
Do not try to remove the disc from the drive while the
computer is accessing the disc.

The optical drive as boot drive

The optical drives can be used for booting the operating system.
If the PC does not start with the disk even though it is "bootable",
first try to insert the disk into the other drive (if available) and
restart your PC. If even this does not lead to success, this can be
connected to the fact that this is not explicitly displayed in the
BIOS or the disk is not bootable. If necessary, check this.
