Checklist
1 Check that the DVD disk you are trying to play and your DVD drive have the same regional code setting. Your DVD drive’s
regional code setting is set by the first DVD disk you insert in the drive.
2 Ensure you have either a hardware or a software MPEG decoder installed on your system.
Checklist
If the drive does not appear to be working, try accessing the disc by clicking on the drive icon or drive letter assigned to the
drive by your operating system.
Checklist
1 If you have difficulty removing a disc from the CD-ROM or DVD drive (during a power failure for example), you can use the
manual eject button. For example, to eject a CD-ROM using the manual eject button:
•
With a thin, solid rod, such as the end of a paper clip, push the CD-ROM drive’s manual eject button
2 The CD-ROM drive door will be released, opening slightly. Carefully pull it open fully and retrieve the CD.
3 To close the CD-ROM drive door, push it gently closed without forcing it. The CD-ROM drive door may not close completely
until it is fully functional (for example, when the power comes back on).
