The CD-ROM
The notebook computer comes standard with a 24X speed removable 5.25" CD-
ROM drive. It is usually labeled drive D and may be used as a boot device if
properly set (refer to Chatper 5, BIOS Utilities). The removable CD-ROM drive
can be replaced with optional drive units, such as DVD-ROM or CD-RW.
Loading Compact Discs
To insert a CD, press the Open Button and carefully place a CD into the Disc
tray with label-side facing up (see below). Push the CD tray in and you are
ready to start. The Busy Indicator will light up while data is being accessed or
while an audio CD is playing. When power is unexpectedly interrupted, insert
an object such as a straightened paper clip into the Emergency Eject hole to
open the tray.
Note: When manually ejecting a CD, DO NOT use a sharpened pencil or
similar object that may break and become lodged in the hole.
