10-10
Procedure
Make sure the CD/DVD is inserted properly. Hold
the CD/DVD by its edges with the label facing up,
and slowly insert it straight into the optical disc
drive.
Check whether the CD/DVD is
recognized/finished loading. If the Media slot
indicator is flashing the CD/DVD is not yet
recognized/finished loading. Wait until the Media
slot indicator turns off and try to access the
CD/DVD again.
A foreign object in the drive's disc slot could
block laser light from reading the CD or DVD -
remove any foreign objects or obstructions that
may be present.
Check whether the CD or DVD is dirty - if it is,
wipe it with a clean cloth lightly dipped in water or
a neutral cleaner. Please refer to the
section in Chapter 4 for further details on
cleaning the media.
The computer's software or hardware
configuration may be causing a problem - ensure
that these configurations match the requirements
of the CD/DVD media (refer to the CD's or DVD's
documentation if available).
Check the type of CD or DVD media that you are
using - the drive supports the following:
DVD-ROM:
