4. Using the Notebook PC
Inserting a CD
CD/DVD Drive
NOTE: The terms “CD-ROM” or “CD” are mainly used in all documentation because of
its wide familiarity, although “CD/DVD” should be more appropriate since this Note-
book PC supports CD-ROM, CD-RW, and DVD-ROM optional modules.
The CD-ROM (Compact Disc Read Only Memory) drive can support all the popular formats: Audio/
Music CDs; Photo CDs; MS-DOS MSCDEX Mode 1 / Mode 2; CD-ROM/XA; CD-I; and Video CDs.
NOTE: Only one CD may be used at one time in this CD drive. The CD drive eject
button is electronic and requires that the Notebook PC be powered ON in order to
eject the CD drive tray. When the Notebook PC is OFF, press the stop button on the
front of the Notebook PC twice to eject the CD tray.
1. While the Notebook PC’s power is ON, press
the CD drive eject button and the CD drive
tray will eject out partially.
2. Hold the CD drive front panel and slide the CD
drive tray completely out. Be careful not to touch
the CD drive lens and other mechanisms. Make
sure there are no obstructions that may get jammed
under the CD drive tray.
3. Hold the CD by the edge and face the printed
side up. Snap the CD onto the hub by press-
ing on both sides of the CD center. The hub
should be higher than the CD when cor-
rectly mounted.
4. Slowly push the CD drive tray back into the Note-
book PC. The drive begins reading the table of
contents (TOC) on the CD. When the drive stops,
the CD is ready to use.
