Solving CD-ROM and DVD problems
If you encounter CD-ROM or DVD problems, see the common causes and solutions listed in the following table or
to the documentation that came with the optional device.
System will not boot from CD-ROM or DVD drive.
Cause Solution
The device is attached to a SATA port that has been hidden in the
Computer Setup utility.
Run the Computer Setup utility and ensure Device Available is
selected for the device's SATA port in Security > Device Security.
Removable Media Boot is disabled in the Computer Setup utility. Run the Computer Setup utility and enable booting to removable
media in Storage > Storage Options. Ensure CD-ROM is enabled in
Storage > Boot Order.
Network Boot is enabled in Computer Setup. Run the Computer Setup utility and disable Network Boot in
Security > Network Boot.
Non-bootable CD in drive. Try a bootable CD in the drive.
Boot order not correct. Run the Computer Setup utility and change boot sequence in
Storage > Boot Order.
Drive not found (identied).
Cause Solution
Cable could be loose. Check cable connections.
The system may not have automatically recognized a newly
installed device.
See reconguration directions in the Solving hardware installation
problems on page 73 section. If the system still does not recognize
the new device, check to see if the device is listed within Computer
Setup. If it is listed, the probable cause is a driver problem. If it is not
listed, the probable cause is a hardware problem.
