Operating Basics
Using Optical Disk Drives
The full-size drive provides high-performance execution of CD/DVD-ROM
based programs. You can run 12 cm (4.72") CD/DVDs. 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.
If you have a DVD super Multi drive, refer also to the Writing CD/DVDs on
DVD Super Multi drive section for precautions on writing to CD/DVDs.
Loading discs
To load CD/DVDs, follow the steps below and refer to figures 4-5.
1. Turn your computer on.
2. Gently hold the CD/DVD by the edges with its labeled facing up, and
insert it into the Optical Disk Drive slot straight on slowly.
Figure 4-4 Inserting a CD/DVD

■ An 8cm CD/DVD can be used with the external Optical Disk Drive.
(Be sure to follow instructions below)
Gently push the CD/DVD until it is loaded automatically. Do not push it
forcibly or at an angle to the Optical Disk Drive slot. This may cause
damage or adhesion of foreign matter on the surface of the CD/DVD.
These imperfections may prevent the drive from reading from or writing to
it.
