Why can’t I play a DVD or CD media?
❑
After inserting your optical disc, wait a few seconds for it to be detected
before trying to access it.
❑
Verify that the disc is in the tray with the label side facing up.
❑
Install your CD or DVD software according to the manufacturer’s
instructions.
❑
If your drive reads some DVDs or CDs, but not others, check the shiny side
of the disc for dirt or scratches.
Why isn’t my DVD playing properly?
If a region code warning appears when you are using the DVD player
application, it may be that the region code of the DVD you are trying to play is
incompatible with the region code setting of your optical drive. A region code is
listed on the disc packaging. Region code indicators such as “1” or “ALL” are
labeled on some DVDs to indicate the type of player that can play the disc.
Unless a “1” or “ALL” appears on the DVD or on its packaging, you cannot play
the disc on this system.
