Possible Cause
Adjust the volume control on your notebook and oper-
ating system. Use the [Fn+F9] key combination on
your keyboard. Pressing [F9] repeatedly while holding
[Fn] will increase the volume of your notebook.
Manually adjusting the volume (i.e. keyboard "hot
keys") should dynamically adjust the volume of the
operating (see above). If that doesn't work, adjust the
sound volume control settings in your software or
application.
Plugging in headphones disables the built-in speakers,
remove the headphones.
Set the BIOS setup utility to the default values within
the Multimedia Device Configuration menu. (See BIOS
Setup Utility on page 29 for more information)
The Audio Driver may be installed or reinstalled by
using the Drivers and Applications CD that came with
your Fujitsu LifeBook. Refer to your application and
operating system documentation for help.
Click on the Volume icon in the tool tray on the
bottom right of the screen. (It looks like a speaker). If
the Mute box is checked, click on it to uncheck it. You
can also use the [Fn+F3] key combination to toggle the
volume on and off. Pressing [F3] while holding [Fn]
will toggle the audio mute.
Open optical drive tray and re-install the disc properly.
Push on the front of the optical drive tray until it
latches. If that doesn't work, pull out the modular drive
latch to remove the device from the bay, then re-insert
the drive until it latched; this ensures that the drive is
properly seated.
Install DVD Player software. (See "Media Player Soft-
ware" on page 37 for more information.)
