Symptom
CD or DVD Drive
Problem
The DVD drive takes
longer to start
because it must first
determine the type of
media being played.
DVD playback
requires large
amounts of
processing power;
therefore, the system
cannot process other
tasks simultaneously
at maximum
performance.
Copyright material at
the beginning of
movie causes a
momentary
corruption.
Solution
Wait at least
30 seconds to let the
DVD drive determine
the type of media
being played. If the
disc still does not
start, refer to the
"Using Online Help
and Support" section
found earlier in this
chapter.
To provide maximum
performance, close
all other programs
while playing DVD
media. It may also
be necessary to
restart Windows to
free all resources.
Wait a few seconds
for the video
corruption to clear
up. If it does not
clear up, then stop
and restart the DVD
movie.
