When you install the drive

While operating

Other

Place the drive on a level  
surface.

Do not place the drive in 
direct sunlight.

Avoid low - or high-temperature 
environments. 

Avoid high-humidity environments.

Handle with caution to prevent 
damage from external shock.

Do not drop the drive, and protect it
fromsevere shocks.

It can damage the drive or cause 
it to malfunction.

Do not move the drive while in operation 

and do not attempt to open the disc tray

byforce.  Make sure to close all working

programs before attempting to open the tray

and always use the open/close button.

Do not use cracked, distorted or
damaged discs.

Do not insert a pin into the emergency

opening while in operation.

In particular, a disc with a crack on the 
inner tracks may break while in use.

Never allow food particles or 
foreign substances to enter the 
drive casing. 

To protect against the risk of 
fire, do ot spill such liquids as 
alcohol and benzene on the

Important to read and understand 
at all times

Do not disassemble

1. Check to see that the disc does not have a crack before use. If the disc has a crack (especially around the center hole), 

it is recommended that you make a copy immediately and use the copy instead. When a cracked disc is used continuously, 
the size of the crack is likely to grow and it will eventually result in irreparable damage to the disc.

2.  Do not use low quality discs (i.e., illegal products, scratched or damaged discs).

Any change or modification not expressly approved by designated qualified personnel could 
void your authority to operate this device.

You can purchase these accessories separately 

from your computer dealer.

(Screws for use: M3 X 6 X 4)

1

Remove the plate from a free expansion slot and install the

CD-ROM drive, as shown in the illustration.

If you have no free expansion slot, install the drive in place of the 

diskette drive.

Make sure to use the standardized screws supplied (M3X6).

- To use screws other than M3X6 may result in malfunction.

Storing Your Discs

Cleaning Your Discs

Run the CD player program supplied with the sound card or play the 
Windows Media Player.

Playing CD-DA/Audio CDs

Follow the instructions provided with the disc.

A video card or MPEG software and a sound card need to be installed to view video CDs.  

Playing Video CDs

The disc may not function properly if there are fingerprints, foreign substances or 

dust on the disc surface.

If the drive is vertically installed, you cannot use an 8 cm MiniDisc because the disc is  
movable. 

Solving Technical Problems

The CD-ROM drive is not

detected by the computer.

After installing the CD-ROM
drive, the PC gets slower.

Check that the power, audio and EIDE cables are correctly 

connected to the computer.

Change the EIDE cable and reconnect it to the computer. 

Preferably, connect a second EIDE cable to the CD-ROM drive

in master mode.

Check the position of the jumper in the master/slave select 

terminal.

The CD-ROM drive is not

recognized by MS-DOS.

Reinstall the device driver or update it with the latest version by 

downloading it from the Samsung Web site.

The CD-ROM drive is not

detected by Windows.

This case may occur when there is a Windows installation 

problem; reinstall Windows.

No sound is heard from an

audio CD.

Check whether the audio cable is correctly connected to the sound

output terminal on the CD-ROM drive and the sound card CD-IN 

terminal.

Check that the sound card is operational.

When the MPEG software

plays a Video CD, the pictures

are not regular and the running

speed is too slow.

Adjust the size of the replay screen.

After checking the display resolution, adjust it, if necessary.

A CD is not read or is read

too slowly.

Check whether the CD is of good quality and clean it, 

if necessary.

The disc compartment will

not open.

Check that the power cable is correctly connected.

Power off and disconnect the PC.

Insert a pin or unfolded paper clip in the emergency hole and push

firmly until the disc compartment opens.

The CD-ROM drive is not

detected after it is connected

to a sound card.

The interface mode of the sound card is AT-BUS.

You must therefore connect the CD-ROM drive to the EIDE 

port on the PC mother board, rather than to the sound card, 

or install an EIDE compatible sound card.

The Disc is not in message is

displayed even though a disc

has been inserted.

The computer may not recognize the disc if you start playback 

too quickly after inserting the disc. 

Open and close the disc compartment and try again. 

Clean the disc and try again.

The friction noise generated during SPIN-UP and STOP is caused by the
Automatic Ball Balancing System(ABS) and is not a malfunction.
