Operating Basics
For some functions, you can tap the TouchPad instead of pressing a control
button.
Using the optical media drive
The text and illustrations in this section refer primarily to the optical CD-
ROM drive. However, operation is the same for all other optical media
drives. The full-size drive provides high-performance execution of CD-
ROM-based programs. You can run either 12 cm (4.72") or 8 cm (3.15")
CDs without an adaptor. An ATAPI interface controller is used for CD-ROM
operation. When the computer is accessing a CD-ROM, an indicator on the
drive glows.
If you have a DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive, refer also to the
Writing CDs
with the DVD-ROM & CD-R/RW drive section for precautions on writing to
CDs/DVDs.
Do not press on the TouchPad too hard or press a sharp object such as a
ball point pen against the TouchPad. The TouchPad could be damaged.
Click: Tap the TouchPad once
Double-click: Tap the TouchPad twice
