Problem
You cannot access a
CD/DVD in the drive
9-10
Procedure
You will see this message if you have previously
chosen to remove the partition and are trying to
create "Recovery Media". When there is no recovery
partition, the Recovery Media Creator cannot make
Recovery Media. However, if you have already
created a "Recovery Media", you can use it to restore
the recovery partition.
Simply follow the instructions in "Restoring the
preinstall software from your creating Recovery
Media" section in this manual. You will be directed
to select "Restore Original Factory Image" from the
drop-down menu. If you have not created "Recovery
Media", please contact TOSHIBA support for
assistance.
Operating
Procedure
Make sure the drive's drawer is securely closed.
Press gently until it clicks into place.
Open the drawer and make sure the CD/DVD is
properly seated. It should lie flat with the label facing
up.
A foreign object in the drawer could block laser light
from reading the CD/DVD. Make sure there is no
obstruction. Remove any foreign object.
Check whether the CD/DVD is dirty. If it is, wipe
it with a clean cloth dipped in water or a neutral
cleaner. Refer to the Media care
4, Basics, for details on cleaning.
