Using your notebook
❑
Close all open applications before playing a DVD-ROM movie.
❑
When playing DVD movies on battery power, set the power management profile to DVD. With other
profiles, the movies can be choppy.
❑
Do not switch power saving modes while playing a DVD video.
❑
Do not use resident disc utilities or resident utilities to speed up the access of discs, because they may
cause the system to become unstable.
❑
Make sure that the screensaver is deactivated.
❑
Region codes indicators are labelled on the DVD discs to indicate in which region and on what type of
player you can play the disc. Unless a '2' (Europe belongs to region '2') or 'all' (this means that you can
play this DVD everywhere in the world) is labeled on your DVD disc or on the packaging, you cannot play
the disc on this player.
❑
Do not try to change the region code settings of the DVD-ROM drive. Any difficulties caused by changing
the region code settings of the DVD-ROM drive are out of warranty.
❑
When a TV is connected, a part of the video screen will not appear with the factory settings. Adjust the
display resolution to 640 x 480.
❑
Dual display is possible when playing DVD movies, but the actual image of the movie will only appear
on one screen at a time. If you want to see the movie on the external display and still work in the
notebook screen (limited use only), go to Control Panel > Appearance and Themes > Display. On the
Settings tab, click Advanced. On the Displays tab, select the TV/CRT monitor as the primary screen.
