The CD-ROM,
DVD-ROM, or Combo Drive
Your computer comes with a pre-installed CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, or Combo
drive. The CD-ROM drive is a read-only drive. It cannot be used to write data
to a recordable CD. The CD-ROM drive can read data from CDs, including
audio or video CDs. The CD-RW can perform these same functions, as well
as record information to writeable CD's. The DVD drive can read both DVDs
and CDs. Your notebook identifies the drive with the letter following the hard
drive letter. If your hard drive is D, then the CD-ROM drive will be E.
Inserting a Disk
1. Press the button on the front of
the drive to open the disk tray
and pull the tray open.
2. Place the disk on the tray, label
side up.
3. Place the disk on the central
spindle and press gently until the
disk clicks into place.
4. Slide back the tray until it clicks
shut.
Removing a Disk
5. Make sure the computer is not
accessing the CD-ROM drive.
6. Press the eject button and pull
the tray all the way out.
Pick up the CD by the edges and
remove the CD-ROM from the tray.
Push the tray into the computer until it
closes fully.
Warning: When the computer is reading from a CD-
ROM/CD-RW/DVD, the indicator light for the CD-ROM
will flash on. Do not attempt to remove a disk
while this light is active.
The lock is located to the left of the eject
button. In locked mode, the drive will stop if the
eject button is accidentally pressed when reading a
CD. When this happens, please unlock the drive,
press eject and push the tray back into the
computer before reading again.
