The disc drive will run the CD.
If your disk does not run using this method, try using an
application that is associated with the media on the disk. For
example, if it is a music CD, open Windows Media
®
Player
and use it to select and then play the CD. For other types of
media, use the associated software to open the files on the
disk.
Creating a CD or DVD
Depending on your computer’s configuration, your computer
may come with a multi-function drive that allows you to:
❖
Play pre-recorded DVDs
❖
Play pre-recorded CDs
❖
Read and write files (depending on your system
configuration) and music files to CD-Recordable (CD-R)
and CD-Rewritable (CD-RW) discs; and DVD±R/±RW
or DVD RAM discs.
Due to manufacturing and quality variations in third party
optical media (e.g., CD or DVD) or optical media
players/recorders, in certain cases, your Toshiba optical
drive may not record on certain optical media that bear
the applicable logo, or playback optical media recorded
by other PCs or optical media recorders. Additionally,
certain optical media recorded on your optical drive may
not playback or operate properly on other PCs or optical
media players. These problems are not due to any defect
in your Toshiba PC or optical drive. Please refer to your
PC's product specification for listing of specific format
compatibilities.
Copy protection technology may also prevent or limit
recording or viewing of certain optical media.
For details on how to use the software, please refer to the
respective Online Help menus.
