Using optical media drives
The text and illustrations in this section refer primarily to the optical
DVD-ROM drive. However, operation is the same for all other optical
media drives. The full-size drive provides high-performance execution of
CD/DVD-ROM-based programs. You can run either 12 cm (4.72") or 8 cm
(3.15") CD/DVDs without an adaptor. An ATAPI interface controller is used
for CD/DVD-ROM operation. When the computer is accessing a
CD/DVD-ROM, an indicator on the drive glows.
Use the WinDVD 5 application to view DVD-Video discs.
