Playing DVDs
If you are using an external DVD-ROM drive or multi-
function drive, you can watch DVD movies using the
InterVideo WinDVD™ application. You will first need to run
WinDVD setup from your computer's hard drive.
Using Windows Explorer, browse to the C:\Toshiba\WinDVD
folder and double-click the Setup.exe file.
NOTE
Caring for CDs and DVDs
❖
Store your discs in their original containers to protect
them from scratches and keep them clean.
❖
Do not bend a disc or place heavy objects on top of it.
❖
Do not apply a label to, or otherwise mar the surface of a
disc.
❖
Hold a disc by its outside edge. Fingerprints on the
surface can prevent the DVD-ROM drive or multi-
function drive from reading the data properly.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Your DVD-ROM or multi-function drive is
set to play region 1 (North America) DVD-ROMs. If you play a
DVD disc from another region, the drive will automatically
change to play in the format of the other region. The drive will
allow you to change regions four times. On the fourth change,
the region will be "locked in." That is, the drive will only play
DVDs from that last region. Note that changing from region 1
to region 2 and back to region 1 is counted as two changes.
For optimum DVD performance, it is recommended that you
play DVDs while running the computer on AC power.
